Mid Island Brick Fest is a one day free family event held at the end of October at Country Club Centre between Shoppers Drug Mart and the library.
Mid Island Brick Fest features a huge LEGO® exhibition showcasing MOCs (My Own Creations) created by MILUG members and visiting AFOLs (Adult Fans of LEGO®) and TFOLs (Teen Fans of LEGO®). There is no cost for adult fans to display their creations but they must register in advance to ensure there is enough space.
This event isn’t just about look at amazing LEGO® creations but it is about interacting with LEGO® in lots of different ways in our various LEGO®-related activities. Activity stations often include a number of the following:
- Play brick
- Wacky race ramp
- LEGO® Stuntz Bikes skee-ball
- Minifigure bingo
- LEGO® stop motion videos
- LEGO® photography
- Public build contests
- Guess the number of Minifigures
- Search and find
- LEGO® fun facts
- LEGO® books
- LEGO® colouring
- Demonstrations by special guests including Nanaimo Science and Nanaimo’s chapter of First LEGO® League.
We recently wrapped up our 5th annual event which was a huge success and we look forward to next year!
