Festival for LEGO® Fans

3rd ANNUAL

Presented by TwoMorrows Inc. and BrickJournal Magazine

W elcome! We want you to have a spectacular time at BrickMagic, but at anevent of this size, we need a few rules to keep things running smoothly. So:

1) Our friends at The LEGO Group want you to know: Some vendor products offered for sale at BrickMagic are arts-and-crafts style merchandise, including custom-molded elements and re-used LEGO elements modified from their original form. The LEGO Group does not authorize or endorse theseitems. (But check ‘em out, cause they’re infinitely cool!)

2) DO NOT TOUCH! Our Exhibitors haveworked hard on their custom creations, and

want you to enjoy looking at them. But unless expressly specified otherwise, assume all displays are HANDS OFF!Parents, please supervise little ones.

3) No strollers are allowed in the Exhibit Hall. The large crowds won’t

accommodate them. Please leave themparked outside in the main lobby area.

4) Wear your wristband at all times.Anyone without their wristband will immediately be

required to pay for admission, or asked to leave the Festival. Andplease, NO SHARING OF WRISTBANDS. Each person over the age of3 must pay for entry into BrickMagic.

D on’t miss our special Play & Build Room containing over 20,000loose LEGO bricks for kids to play with to their heart’s content(and chairs for parents to take a break in!). The bricks for this

room were made possible by our sponsor Lay-N-Go, so be sure tocheck out their ingenious new storage/play mat.
