LEGO might just be the most popular toy in the world, and it advertises itself as being ideal for ages 4 to 99 – so you can expect to see a large crowd descending on Edison, New Jersey for the biggest LEGO festival in New Jersey!
Brick Fest Live, a massive pop-up LEGO festival, has been traveling the country, and on April 29th and 30th in 2023, it’s coming to the New Jersey Convention & Expo Center in Edison, New Jersey. Every place this traveling event lands, it brings with it a wide variety of interactive activities suitable for everyone from young builders making their first creations to master builders looking to show everyone just how creative LEGO can be. And for those who have been playing with LEGO since their own childhood, it’s the perfect opportunity to bring the next generation to experience the joy of the world’s most famous brick on the biggest stage possible. Brick Fest Live events tend to sell out quickly – there are a lot of LEGO lovers out there – so you can sign up for your tickets now to guarantee your spot at Edison’s biggest block party!
This April, Edison's biggest convention center will be filled with more LEGO bricks than you know what to do with!
Welcome to Brick Fest Live, a massive interactive pop-up event coming to the New Jersey Convention. & Expo Center - complete with Brickbot, the brand's popular mascot who can be seen at all the shows.
Dozens of Master Builders will be on hand, crafting and displaying some of the biggest LEGO displays around. You'll see skyscrapers, cityscapes, and some of your favorite characters from movies and TV.
Those characters make for perfect photo-ops, as the human-sized LEGO figurines are stunningly realistic and provide a memory that will last kids a lifetime.
But sometimes, the smallest artworks are the ones that make the biggest impact. The LEGO mosaic wall is the place where kids can make their own mark - leaving a personalized tile on the wall before they leave.
The massive LEGO pool is a great way to start off the event, and a fantastic photo opportunity for mom and dad! How many LEGOs do you think are in that display?
And of course, it wouldn't be a LEGO event without some LEGOs to buy - and you'll find some of the most unique and creative sets here to keep the fun going until the next Brick Fest Live in the area!
Brick Fest Live is excited to welcome you and all your LEGO-loving friends to the Edison event in April 2023.
