The Black Country Brick Show will return to the Phoenix Collegiate in West Bromwich for a weekend of Lego-related fun.

Those attending on Saturday, April 5 and Sunday, April 6 will be treated to a range of exhibits and attractions, including 90 exhibitors from around the world, plenty of games to play, free activities for all ages, Lego vendors to suit all wallet sizes, and Star Wars - UK Garrison cosplay characters.

There will also be a Brick-Pit with thousands of bricks to sit, play and build, a quiet room, and outdoor picnic area, multiple food vendors and a sensory room. 

It was the fifth year of the show, which helps to raise funds for Birmingham Children's Hospital and the Lego charity Fairy Bricks, after starting in 2018 with 400 people in a small room and building up to thousands of people over the weekend.
