lug.ie at Dublin Brickcon

LUG.ie at Dublin Brickcon A big shout-out to Stephen and Michele for some fantastic displays at Dublin Brickcon! Stephen brought along a brilliant wild pirate party, packed with character, as well as a great selection of classic LEGO sets. A particular highlight was the iconic 1989 6285 Black Seas Barracuda, one of the classic LEGO pirate ships that remains a favourite with fans decades later. Michele’s display was equally impressive, featuring her amazing medieval docks and coastal street, with loads of great details to discover throughout. And then there was her wonderfully spooky skull wedding cake! 🎂💀 It was certainly a standout creation and, in our eyes, a winner of any cake competition! It was great to see both Stephen and Michele putting their own creativity and collections on display and sharing them with visitors. Displays like these are exactly what makes LEGO events so enjoyable, with everything from classic sets and collections to completely original creations. Well done to both of you! 👏🧱 ...

Culture Night exhibit 2026 round-up

Culture Night at Blanchardstown Library A huge thank you to everyone who helped make our LEGO exhibition at Blanchardstown Library for Culture Night such a great success! We had a very large turnout throughout the evening, with lots of visitors coming along to see the fantastic builds and collections brought along by our members. The exhibition was also accompanied by a children’s LEGO build zone, which proved very popular and gave younger visitors a chance to get creative themselves. There were some fantastic displays on show, including Tom’s impressive steam engine, Stephen’s collection of classic LEGO sets, Michele’s town race and amazing micro Space display, and Grant’s fantastic Fallout MOC and collection. It’s hard to believe Grant’s Fallout build was his first MOC! We’ve included some photos below showcasing just some of the great builds and LEGO creations that were on display.

We were particularly happy to see members Nicky and Merlin display their fantastic wares for the first time. The exhibit was very well attended and there was a lot of enthusiasm for everything that was on display. Nicky's motorized bulldozerr and Royalridge's customised LED lit up Millennium Falcon were not surprisingly among the crowd favourites. But can you spot BB-8 keeping an eye on things? Here's looking forward to the next show! Lug.ie Team ...
