A lookback on Bricktastic 🔙
Last month we welcomed back one of the most creative and playful events in our calendar - @_bricktastic !
We welcomed around 13,000 visitors through our doors across the two days - marking it as the best Bricktastic event yet! Visitors were greeted by hundreds of LEGO models, activities and plenty of fun for LEGO fans of all ages.
If you missed out on attending, take a glimpse at what was on offer at the 2026 edition courtesy of the Bricktastic team...
We are already looking forward to Bricktastic's 2027 event 👀
Our completed giant mosaic. Here are the stats:
726 32x32 baseplates
185,856 2x2 bricks
= One epic collaborative build with the public.
Thank you to @elsmorew for the 📷
🚨Building the LEGO Dream premieres at Bricktastic in just over a week! Join us for a special screening plus a Q&A with LEGO Designers Josh Bretz and Thomas Lajon.

📢 Brand new LEGO documentary, Building the LEGO Dream, premieres with an exclusive screening and Q&A at Bricktastic, in Manchester, on 21st & 22nd February.
Building the LEGO Dream captures the inspiring story of how five fans became Fan Designers, and how it all started when they submitted their designs to the LEGO Ideas platform (the Home Alone house, the Orient Express train, BTS, Sesame Street and the Motorized Lighthouse).
We can't wait to see you there!

They say imitation is the greatest form of flattery....
Well it appears there are some events and permanent attractions calling themselves Bricktastic or using the phrase in their advertising!
Just a little reminder that there is only one Bricktastic and it only happens one weekend of the year in Manchester. Accept no imitations 😉
Tickets are on sale now for two days of the best models and activities related to LEGO you will find in the UK. So many of you have already bought tickets, thank you! Are you going to be next?
