Brick Blast: LEGO® Fan Convention Bay Area
Brick Blast Live 2026 is a family-friendly LEGO® fan convention celebrating creativity, imagination, and hands-on play for builders of all ages. Designed for both lifelong Adult Fans of LEGO (AFOLs) and families discovering the joy of building together, Brick Blast brings the Bay Area LEGO community back together for a full day of interactive experiences, fan-built art, and brick-powered inspiration.
Taking place at the Santa Clara Convention Center—the former longtime home of Bricks by the Bay—Brick Blast honors the legacy of Bay Area LEGO fandom while reimagining it for a new generation. The event blends large-scale displays with participatory activities, creating an environment where visitors don’t just observe creativity—they take part in it.
Attendees can explore impressive fan-built LEGO displays created by builders and LEGO User Groups from the Bay Area and beyond. These detailed creations range from cityscapes and sci-fi worlds to imaginative original builds that showcase the artistry, engineering, and storytelling possibilities of LEGO bricks.
Brick Blast places a strong emphasis on hands-on engagement. Interactive build zones invite kids and parents to sit down together and build freely, while guided challenges encourage collaboration, problem-solving, and creative thinking. LEGO robotics demonstrations and STEM-focused exhibits highlight how play and engineering intersect, offering inspiration for builders interested in technology and design.
The convention also features a curated vendor area with independent brick sellers and LEGO retailers traveling from across the country. Shoppers can browse sets, minifigures, rare parts, custom pieces, and collectibles, making Brick Blast a destination for casual fans and serious collectors alike.
Community and education are central to Brick Blast’s mission. The event supports school and classroom participation through creative challenges and outreach programs, including opportunities for student-built projects to be displayed publicly. For many families, Brick Blast is designed to be more than a convention—it’s a shared experience that creates lasting memories.
With thousands of LEGO fans and families expected, Brick Blast Live 2026 offers a vibrant, welcoming space to celebrate imagination, creativity, and the simple joy of building together—one brick at a time.
