Brick.ie The Irish Association for Adult Fans of LEGO®

It seems that summer has finally arrived but with Irish weather one can never be sure. Its a timely reminder that Brick Feile 2024, Ireland's premier event for LEGO fans, is fast approaching and we'll be on site at CityNorth Hotel in about 2 months. If you want to see what the brick.ie team has been up to this year, get stuck into our super-sized brick pits and participate in the FairyBricks mosaic build then don't miss out. Tickets are only available at https://www.eventbrite.ie/e/brick-feile-tickets-708431145627

Of course, we've been busy with other events. Our inaugural fundraising event for Taney Parish in Dublin was a great success and we hope to be back next year. Prior to that we participated at a brilliant event in Bangor, Northern Ireland.

Welcome to summer.

It doesn't quite feel like it yet but we've already kicked off some smaller events as our build team prepares for Brick Féile, Ireland's premier event for LEGO(R) fans later this summer. Last weekend we were in Belfast for a fundraiser for St Jude's Parish. We were so well looked after, we already have plans to return to Belfast, this time to St Marks Dundela on 4 and 5 November for another parish fundraiser. Check out the fantastic pictures on our Facebook page.

Before our big event, a small team will also be attending the Cork Summer Show in June for the first time. We'll be bringing some of our LEGO art and hopefully will get a chance to meet some of our Munster members in person.

Plans are well advanced for Brick Féile at CityNorth Hotel near Dublin Airport this 15 and 16 July. This is brick.ie's flagship event with many international builders supplementing our own experienced and talented team.

On 16 and 17 July our second Brick Féile charity fundraiser was held. By all accounts our visitors, members and international guests had a great time. A big shout out to our charity partner, Fairy Bricks and all the volunteers who ran fantastic Tombola, mosaic and 90th anniversary duck build challenges and also to our own members who brought fantastic LEGO models and interacted with visitors throughout the weekend. For those interested in our next Brick Féile please put 15 and 16 July 2023 into your diaries. You can stay up to date with all brick.ie events on Facebook here - https://www.facebook.com/brickdotie .

Last weekend, on 6 and 7 August many of the brick.ie team were also at Dublin Comic Con managing another mosaic challenge devised by Fairy Bricks for the new LEGO store opening.

Welcome to 2022

For those who missed it we managed to participate in a Jack and Jill fundraiser event last November. It was great to display some of our models in the brick again and we really enjoyed live building the LEGO Titanic set which we then dropped up to RTE for the LATE LATE Toy Show.

We continue to host monthly zoom calls for members. Check the forum for details. We are also delighted to confirm that Ireland's premier event for LEGO fans returns on 16 and 17 July to the CityNorth Hotel near Dublin airport. We look forward to seeing what our Irish and international builders have been up to and to the return of Fairy Bricks mosaic building to Ireland.

For anyone needing a reminder of what our exhibitions are about, we were fortunate enough to be featured on Ireland AM for International LEGO Day on the 28 January where we had some some models live in the studio.
