Doctor Sinister Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 The Great Western LEGO Show is the largest display of models built by LEGO fans in the UK. Every year, members of the Brickish Association bring their amazing creations to Swindon and visitors from all over the UK come to be inspired. Click here to go to the official site for this year's show! Dr. S. Quote
Cardinal Brick Posted July 14, 2010 Posted July 14, 2010 Excellent! As I've just about changed job and don't have to work every weekend any more I think I should be able to make it, looking forward to it as it's been years since I last went to one Quote
Peppermint_M Posted July 14, 2010 Posted July 14, 2010 So you have to be a member of the Brickish to display there? Looks like I will have to get around to joining then. I will have to see if I could go along and take a look, Swindon is possible to get to but it takes a long while... Quote
cavegod Posted July 14, 2010 Posted July 14, 2010 Think i will be there Saturday and Sunday, but don't know if i will display anything as the thought of a 4 hr drive with a car full of lego + kids and the missus doesn't bear thinking about!! Oh go on then i may bring a couple of models to display i can't help it!! Pete Quote

I've displayed models at the show several years in a row and even though I don't live in the UK any more I will be there this year as well. I've already booked a few days off work for it and booked a hotel and flights. Cheers, Ralph Quote
Derfel Cadarn Posted July 15, 2010 Posted July 15, 2010 I've just joined, so that means I can display some mocs right? Do I just turn up with a lorry load of mocs or do I have to organise it with those in the know? Quote
laimonas123 Posted July 15, 2010 Posted July 15, 2010 Oh, great thing. But I don't think so I can go to this great show. Maybe next time. Quote

Do I just turn up with a lorry load of mocs or do I have to organise it with those in the know? You can't expect to just show up on the day with a lorry full of stuff, as there obviously needs to be some space allocated and the organisers would also like to have a degree of control over who is bringing what. You can register separately on the official site that Dr S. provided the link to. I don't know whether your membership application has already been processed, so you might want to wait a few days. If it doesn't work, I'd suggest contacting the organisers through the contact form on the site. I look forward to seeing you there. Cheers, Ralph Quote

SlyOwl Posted September 19, 2010 Posted September 19, 2010 It's two weeks away now, anyone else plan to be there? I'll be there the whole weekend, bringing some new MOCs, some old favourites and some re-jigs. Quote
MadAboutLego Posted September 29, 2010 Posted September 29, 2010 Yes looking good for the MadAboutLego team to be there. It will be nice to meet some of you all! This will be our first LEGO event so really looking forward to it, Pity we are flying RyanAir so cannot spend to much. Quote
