Hundreds of Adult LEGO Fans from Canada, the United States, and even from overseas will travel to Richmond for the first major LEGO Fan convention ever to be held in BC. These enthusiasts have spent countless hours building amazing LEGO creations that will be on public display.
LEGO fans of all ages are invited to come to the River Rock Casino Resort on Saturday, April 23 or Sunday, April 24 to take in the BrickCan Public LEGO Exhibition. Tickets for specific viewing times are available through Ticketmaster.
In addition to the marveling at the hundreds of amazing creations on display, ticketholders will be able browse “Vendor Alley” and purchase rare or custom building kits, unique accessories, cool T-shirts, jewellery, artwork, books, and more. Then there’s the “Creation Station”, where kids can try some building of their own and participate in other interactive, hands-on activities.
