Entries for Brickfest now open

Wyndham Brickfest is back and ready to build on its past glory and raise more vital funds for the Wyndham Health Foundation.

The much loved – and very constructive – community event will return to Hoppers Crossing Secondary College on the weekend of July 5-6.

Anyone keen to showcase their creations can now enter competitions for 12 and under, 17 and under, as well as adults, with the only caveat being it must fit on a 48cm x 48cm baseplate.

Those with bigger ambitions, or at the very least, bigger Lego creations, can enter the all ages large display if it will fit on one table and is smaller than 60cm x 120cm.

If your masterpiece cannot be confined to a single table, then the all ages extra large display is for you.

Brickfest President Andrew Elsbury said he is proud of the efforts so far, ready to break records – not LEGO sets.

“Wyndham Brickfest has been a part of our community for six years and we are proud to have raised over $16,000 going towards children’s health in Wyndham,”

“Last year was a great effort with $5,000 raised for a new birthing bed at Werribee Mercy Hospital to ensure the best possible entry into the world for our many newborns in our community.”

“This year we hope we can match or beat that effort, and we need the help of LEGO enthusiasts.”

Tickets to attend will go on sale in June, so anyone will be able to see some of Wyndham’s best architecture – at least in LEGO form.
