Fort Wayne, Indiana (September 16, 2026) – Join LEGO Enthusiasts of All Ages to Build, Play & See Hundreds of Original LEGO Displays! The Brickworld® LEGO Exposition, founded in 2007, is coming back to Fort Wayne over the weekend of October 10-11, 2026, at the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum, 4000 Parnell Avenue, Fort Wayne, IN 46805. The Expo runs Saturday from 10 am-5 pm, and Sunday from 10 am-4 pm.
At Brickworld Fort Wayne, thousands of enthusiasts of all ages will enjoy seeing spectacular original creations and layouts, building at LEGO and DUPLO play stations & interactive exhibits, and visiting vendor booths to enhance their LEGO collections. The Fort Wayne expo features LEGO displays including spaceships, castle and train cities, pop culture and movie creations, classic art, and even some ingenious working LEGO machines at the Great Ball Contraption. This is our only holiday-themed show, Haunted Brickworld, so guests can enjoy some spooky creations, and photo-ops with large Halloween decorations.
Guests can also build at the Play Brick area with tens of thousands of loose LEGO bricks; and the Graffiti Wall where guests can build mosaic-style images with thousands of multi-colored LEGO “pixels.” Guests won’t want to miss the Great Ball Contraption (GBC), a giant collection of small LEGO machines that pass thousands of LEGO soccer balls around a loop. The now-world-famous GBC originally debuted at Brickworld. Guests can see, in-person, the phenomenon that has a huge social media presence, and maybe even join in on the action with interactive GBC modules! Brickworld holds the record for the longest GBC loop, and this area is often the most popular display where attendees should plan to spend time watching the entire system.
“Brickworld encourages families and friends to come be inspired by all the art, architecture, engineering and creativity our LEGO artists have to offer. Take your eyes off of your screens for a day and enjoy building together at our interactive displays, increasing your LEGO collection by visiting our vendors and, of course, seeing massive LEGO cities, castles, spaceships, and so much more! You may even learn something new about the LEGO community or be inspired to start your own displays!” said Chief Brick Officer and Master Model Builder Mark Larson.
