Ready your building skills!  The LEGO KidsFest, a nationally-traveling giant LEGO expo, is coming to a city near you!  This interactive LEGO extravaganza brings all of the creative hands-on, minds-on fun of LEGO building and experiences together in an activity- and entertainment-packed family event for children of all ages and builders of all skills and interests.

Among the many LEGO attractions, families will find:

• Creation Nation: build your own creation to add to a custom map of the U.S. (in U.S. Markets only)
• Race Ramps: build your own custom car, then race it down the ramp against friends and family
• Construction Zones: creative free build, play and display areas
• LEGO DUPLO®: younger visitors can explore imagination through building
• LEGO Retail and KidsFest Marketplace: purchase LEGO and official KidsFest tour merchandise
• Brick Pile: a gigantic pile full of LEGO bricks for creative play and enjoyment

• Brickscapes: fantastic displays that combine lots of LEGO and DUPLO sets
• LEGO CHIMA: choose your tribe and test your Speedor battling skills
• And much more, covering over 150,000+ square feet of space

On tour since 2009, nearly 420,000 have attended a LEGO KidsFest.  Previous tour stops include Minneapolis, Boston, Austin, Cincinnati, Denver, Pittsburgh, Chicago, Hartford, Milwaukee, San Jose, Phoenix, Louisville, Cleveland and Raleigh.  Tickets for many cities have sold out with 27,000 to 30,000 visitors in attendance at each venue.

Tickets do sell out pretty fast. They were sold out last year when we were in Pittsburgh so grab them early. You can order tickets here.  Five sessions – all identical and 4 1/2 hours each – are available for the each tour stop.
