The amazing team at Alpine Brick Exchange will be hosting a Lego free build area in the Tower Prefunction section of the con. This is where the costume contest stage usually resides.

​

Kids of all ages will be able to build to their heart's content with a nearly endless supply of bricks to choose from!

​

If you love what you build, you can also take your creation HOME for just $10 per pound of Lego(minimum purchase of $10).

​

After you are done, be sure to check out Alpine Brick Exchanges booth on the show floor for more sets, minifigs, and so much more Lego! Who knows, you may even bump into a Lego Master at booth #1110!
