Record number of people attend Christchurch Brick Show
Last weekend's show at Christchurch Arena featured more than 200 LEGO exhibits of iconic buildings, recognisable landscapes and movie scenes.
One exhibit was a microscale model of the Christchurch Museum and The Arts Centre, Te Matatiki Toi Ora, as well as a section of the Botanical Gardens and a row of historic houses.
Organiser Treena-Marie Aldridge said this year’s show featured the biggest exhibits ever displayed since the Christchurch Brick Show began in 2012.
The Brick Show was cancelled in 2020 and the exhibits for this year were at least two years in the making.
About 22,000 people went through the door over the two days, a record number, organisers said.
The next Christchurch Brick Show will be held on July 16 and 17 next year.
