This is a call out to all AFOL, LEGO collectors, builders, hobbyists,
enthusiasts within walking, driving or flying distance of Toronto, Canada.
The Brickfête Team would love to see you this summer for our annual LEGO Fan
Convention. Join us for some good times completely focused on our beloved
obsession with the brick. You will see some amazing displays, have chances to
get involved with fun games and event, as well as hear from an official LEGO
Designer and LEGO Master Builder.
This July 11, 12, 13 and 14, 2013!
Hilton Hotel, Airport Rd in Toronto, Canada
To register for the four days visit our AFOL portion of our site…
www.brickfete.com/AFOL/event and please note, space is limited so act now,
operators are standing by.
We have secured some great room rates (however those end soon, so book now
before you end up paying full Toronto prices.)
If you are from out of town (or country) we are located right across from the
Toronto Airport, which means you can just fly here, board the shuttle to the
hotel and not worry about renting cars, maps or public transit.
Join our website’s free forum if you have any questions or want to discuss
things such as sharing a room, collaborative builds, or just a chance to connect
with others before the event.
Our list of events are being posted and there is something for everyone to get
involved with.

Good afternoon everyone,
If you have not heard, Brickworld 2013 will be held at a new home - The
Renaissance Hotel & Convention Center in Shaumburg, IL. This move is in
response to the attendees desire to hold the event in a single room. We will be
starting this year with a 50,000 square foot room for the fun.
This will be an entirely new and fun experience for all the attendees.
You can learn more at Brickworld’s web site.
Also, Geek Nation Tours will be hosting a special tour to the event if they
generate enough interest. Stay tuned as they will post additional information.
As always, we look forward to seeing everyone at the event in June.
Warm Regards,
Adam, Bryan and the entire Brickworld Team

The BrickCon 2012 Presentation/Session/Activity schedule is being
finalized this weekend before the program goes to press, so if you'd like
to give a talk/moderate a roundtable/run an activity I need a title,
description, and requirements by September 15, this Saturday.
Also due this Saturday are Audio/Visual stuff associated with a
presentation (such as PowerPoint presentations, videos, or projected
images) which need to go to Nicole, our AV master. Contact me for her
e-mail.
Relatedly, the Virtual LEGO Room Tour, hosted by Carlyle Livingston, will
be returning to BrickCon this year.
http://news.lugnet.com/events/nwbrickcon/?n=419
Basically, this will be a roundtable where people bring pictures of their
Lego storage/build/sorting areas and do a show and tell. Since
those are projected images they will also need to be taken and sent to
Nicole by the end of Saturday.
BrickCon is an annual adult Lego fan convention and exhibition in Seattle
since 2002. BrickCon 2012 will be October 4, 5, 6, and 7 at the Seattle
Center Exhibition Hall and Northwest Rooms
