Keynote, Registration, Logo and Odds and Ends

Keynote Speaker Confirmed
I’m proud to announce that the keynote speaker this year is Tormud Askildsen of LEGO Community Development. He has been one of the many people in the LEGO Group responsible for growing the bond between the community and TLG, and I’m happy to have him speak to the community about community!

BrickFest Registration Open
The registration webpage for BrickFest 2006 is now open! Attendees from previous Fests can log in their old account and register for this one, which looks to be the best BrickFest yet! You can either register directly, or register from the venue website, the Sheraton Premiere Tyson’s Corner. Because of the venue change, we will have to cap registrations to 400 total, so register early!

New Event Graphic for Brickfest 2006 Presented
There’s also an Event Graphic for BrickFest 2006, designed by Jim Green! The logo is based on the theme of this year’s Fest: Hollywood! From action movies to drama, from special effects to actors, BrickFest 2006 will be placing everything in a cinematic context, including an awards night that will be like the Academy Awards, though hopefully not as long:-)! Look for merchandise with this logo and theme soon at the BrickFest website, and look for this masthead for the latest news from BrickFest!

Calls for Coordinators
And while most of the themes for BrickFest have Coordinators, we are still in need of a few: Micro/Vignette, Technic (a new position), and Bionicle. Attendees interested in being part of the event can drop me a line! The Coordinators will be officially announced soon - many are at work planning displays and more!

Is there more coming? You better believe it! As we get closer to showtime, I’ll be posting updates on BrickFest - and there’s a lot that will be happening!

Comments and questions? Drop me a line!

Til next update,

Joe Meno
Event Coordinator, BrickFest 2006

(...) A couple of questions: What is the reason for the cap on registrations? What are the plans for managing the public during the expo? Will there be barriers and/or volunteers to protect MOCs?
