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

As previously advised on social media our flagship event with international visitors, Brick Féile, has unfortunately had to be postponed until July 2021 due to Covid-19 restrictions. This will give us even more time to prepare our spectacular models for your enjoyment and it facilitates both the mosaic team from our favourite charity Fairy Bricks and our large contingent of international builders who we hope will once again be in a position to travel with their unique models. Notwithstanding the postponement, we are very hopeful that another Fairy Bricks delivery of sets to Irish hospitals can be undertaken later in the year when restrictions have been lifted somewhat.

The LEGO hobby is well-positioned for building at home. LEGO Shop at Home deliveries are continuing and we were delighted to note that the exclusive LEGO Idea House sets normally only available in Billund have been made available online, albeit only to Irish, UK and Danish customers. Some of our builders are also reporting that they have reached the ever-illusive 'fully sorted' status with respect to their LEGO part collections.

At the moment some of our member's models are still scheduled to appear at other events in the autumn. Fingers crossed that you will be able to soon see them 'in the brick'. We will advise on the status of official brick.ie events as the year proceeds and event logistics become clearer.

In the meantime we hope you enjoyed our Covid-19 series of vignettes built by Jessica Farrell. If you haven't seen them check them out on our Facebook page. We have also recommenced our monthly member meetings, this time virtually, so members should keep an eye out on the forum for details.

Until next time

The brick.ie team
