This blows my mind. I am sure you heard of the young man who put together a fantastic lego display and a small boy pushed it over? Yikes.
This looks so fun! We just got a Lego Discovery Center here and we can’t wait to take the kids.
I am at awe at these Lego creations! Such talent these people have. I think taking your child to a Lego Kidsfest is a good way to encourage their creativity.
We went a couple of years ago when Lego kidsfest came to Calgary and it was an amazing event.
So much to see and not nearly enough time to see it all in!
When we went they had Jake and the never land pirates and Cars 🙂
How fun! My son would love to go to this!
It never ceases to amaze me what they do with Legos. I used to live about a half hour from Legoland in the San Diego area. I just adore them and what they do for kids’ imaginations (NO video games for awhile is a wonderful thing)!
Wow, those lifesize Lego’s are something else. It always amazes me how creative some people are with Lego’s and what they create.
Oh wow. My boys would have been in heaven here! In fact they probably still would be 🙂

I’m always amazed at what people can do with Legos. I really love putting together kits. I haven’t been able to in forever, though.

Those are so amazing! My son would have loved this when he was little. We have sooo many Legos at our house.

Some of those lego sculptures are just unreal! Looks like this was a great experience.
I am a huge fan of legos! To make these things take such talent and patience.
Oh my gosh my kids would be in heaven!! They are all Lego fans, those are amazing figures built out of Lego’s!

we are not on the tour route, but I find these lego creations absolutely incredible. Can you imagine the time and effort put into making these? baffling works of art.
This is awesome! I live in San Diego with Legoland just an hour north. The kids love that place! It’s so cool that they have a touring legos exposition so more kids can see lego sculptures.
Wow, these are so cool. Such talent.
yeah, I am pretty sure my kids would love this. I love Legos too so definitely would be a family fun event.
This looks so fun! Plus the pricing is incredibly reasonable for such a great event!
Wow! I didn’t know something like this existed! I would love to take my kids when they are a bit older, they are 2 and 4 now. Thanks for sharing!
So much fun lego-ness! My husband and I love legos so much.
I wish this was going to be held in an area near me! My family would LOVE this event, we’re Lego fanatics!!!
How totally fun. Wish there was a place like this around us. I personally love the Star Wars one!
We went to something like this when it was here. My son had so much fun. Legos is just one of those things you just don’t ever outgrow. It’s so much fun to see what kind of creativity comes out of them.
WOW, my family would love this! That first pic with all those LEGOS is so cool!
Oh wow! How fun is this? I know lots of kids that would enjoy this! Would make a great family trip!
My son has always wanted to go to Legofest. We missed the one in Dallas last year. It looks like a lot of fun! I love all the characters. It’s just amazing how people make huge lego structures.
I can’t imagine the amount of skill and dedication to create these Lego sculptures. I’m glad Lego is part of my childhood.
Oh my word. My kids would think that this was absolute heaven! I am going to have to look into going to this next time!
Whoa, this is epic. I wish they had some form of Lego world in the UK, especially Disney characters – that would be a lot of fun!
The Lego Kidsfest sounds and looks amazing. I would have loved to take my boys to this when they were little. This would be so much fun for everyone and I will have to share this with my sister along with my nieces for their kids. Thanks for sharing the information.
This looks like so much fun. My son would have been in heaven with a pile of LEGOS at his feet. The Chewbacca statue is my personal favorite.
That looks like so much fun. My daughters and I love playing with Legos. I would love to be able to take them here someday. That would be an amazing experience.
OMG, that is Lego-madness, but so cool! My daughter would go crazy with all the Legos.
Lego Kidsfest sounds like the perfect event for kids who are Lego obsessed like my nieces and nephews!! HA!!
These Lego creations are so amazing! It’s crazy how people will build them without a book or anything. Lol
It’s amazing all of the wonderful creations that can come to life with Lego. These family-friendly activities look like they were so much fun to participate in.
I wish I could have taken our boys to this when it came last year to Nashville.
Lego fests are so cool! They have grown so much since I was a kid, I’d love to visit one like you have visited in Kentucky.
Both of my kids would love this. we’re hoping to go to Legoland this summer.
Looks like a fun event. My daughter would love it. I’m always so impressed with all that Lego work. My daughter has some really small, princess sets and they just take me forever… I get so frustrated. lol.
I have never heard of LEGO Kidsfest but sounds like a blast! It never stops amazing me how talented some of the master builders are! I wouldn’t even know where to begin to build a LEGO Chewbacca.
This looks like so much fun. I don’t know when this is coming to Dallas-Fort Worth. My boys would enjoy playing in the Legos.
Wow, what an amazing event. My nephew is obsessed with Legos, and this would just leave him speechless. I am in awe of some of the creations. It just boggles my mind! I especially love the Cinderella and shoe creations. Amazing!
Those are some really awesome statutes made of legos. I wish they had place like that near us to visit. Looks awesome.
I am a huge fan of legos! We all are at our home! Some of those require such talent and patience!
It’s amazing how talented and creative people can be with it comes to creating LEGO stuff. We missed the one in Charlotte, NC earlier this year. I hope we get to go next time.
Legos are literally one of the best toys ever invented. My son just finished his first year of college as an engineer major. I’m sure his love of Legos had something to do with his choice of majors/career.
The Lego Kid fest is just the perfect event for kids’ imagination to be tickled and encourage them to be creative.
Legos are so much fun! I remember playing with them for hours as a kid. This seems like it would be a great event for families. I LOVE that t-shirt, I think I need it in adult sizes 😉

This looks like so much fun! I wish they would have things like this around here. My kids (and myself) are Lego fiends.
This is amazing! I grew up on legos, playing with them for hours and hours! I’d love to go see this!
Oh my, is this awesome or what? I never knew they did this in KY! I’m just north of the river, and my daughter and nephews would love to go to something like this!
I still think Legos are cool. I love seeing things built out of them. I enjoyed all the pictures you posted. Especially Cinderella.
Oh my, this is awesome! My kids loved legiland in Florida. It was such a beautiful and fun experience. I really believe in learning through play for children.
I totally love Legos. They’re timeless toys and are universal to boys or girls. I grew up with them and can see introducing it to our kids someday.
Oh wow…this is a kid’s dream. I think most kids would feel at home here
