I’ve been rather less active in promoting Brickvention (Australia’s premier LEGO convention) this year, entirely because I’m rather sad to not be going this time around. But I would be terribly remiss if I didn’t remind all our Melbourne readers that it’s coming soon (19th and 20th January 2013 to be precise) and you need Continue reading →
I’ve just returned from Melbourne where I attended my third (maybe fourth…) Brickvention. Each year this convention gets bigger and, more importantly, better. A huge thanks to the organisers for making it such a great event. For those who could not attend here’s a selection of some of the great creations that were on display. Continue reading →
Thanks to an excessively busy patch in my life it’s been a long while since I blogged anything LEGO. Unfortunately this probably won’t change much for a little while at least. But I felt I should take a few moments to remind everyone that the public tickets to Brickvention 2012 are selling out fast. So Continue reading →
Registration for Brickvention 2012 and tickets for the public days are now open. The 2012 event will be held in the same place as the 2011 event (Melbourne Town Hall) with public days on the 21st-22nd January 2012 and a registered attendees only day on the 20th (with setup on the 19th). As ever I Continue reading →
As I mentioned in my last post I spent last weekend (14th to 16th) enjoying myself at Brickvention 2011. This year is was significantly larger than last year with 140 AFOLs attended and 8000 people through the door on public day. In order to deal with an increasing number of attendees (last year there were Continue reading →
Just a reminder to those in Australia that Brickvention 2011 will be held in under two weeks so if you’re planning to register as a full participant best get in quick. The public day requires no registration but for an AFOL I strongly recommend being there for all days. Full details can be found on Continue reading →
Once again it is Summer and that means it’s time for Brickvention. As Australia Day falls on a Wednesday this year Brickvention breaks from its usual tradition of falling on the long weekend and will be held from the 14th to the 16th of January instead which hopefully means cheaper flights and accomodation. Registration is Continue reading →
The above image by batwingtm will take you to the flickr group which also includes pictures from previous Brickventions. I’ll add more links as I find them. Well I’ve just got back from Melbourne after attending Brickvention 2010 and having a little holiday. I’m very tired so will keep this brief but I felt I Continue reading →
I’m sending out a pre-Christmas reminder that the previously mentioned Brickvention 2010 is coming up fast so get registered if you want to participate in the Australia Day weekend. So far Brickvention has people registered from all six states and a final full attendence of at least 50 is expected as well as a predicted Continue reading →
Registration is now open for Brickvention 2010, the Australian LEGO convention put on by Brickventures. I attended last year’s Brickvention and it was an impressive display. The public crowd on the Sunday was ridiculously huge. I’ll be there and I hope more of our readers can attend. Brickvention is an annual convention and exhibition of Continue reading →
Just a 16 day reminder about Australia’s own convention. And remember it’s on the Australia Day long weekend so if you’re planning to visit Melbourne for it book your hotels about now. Australia’s LEGO convention, Brickvention, is just a few weeks away and it is now time to make that all important decision about attending Continue reading →
A heads up for all those Australian LEGO fans out there. I plan to attend and hope to have a blast. Brickvention is Australia’s own LEGO convention and it’s only a few months away! The 2009 Brickvention will be held over the Australia Day Long Weekend (January 24th to 25th) in Melbourne, Australia and promises Continue reading →
