LEGO® Exhibition Brings a World of Creativity to Sandton City

Byron Rode / June 17, 2026

Families, collectors, and LEGO® enthusiasts can look forward to a weekend of imagination and engineering when the LEGO® Exhibition arrives at Sandton City on 27 and 28 June 2026.


Taking place during the winter school holidays, the free exhibition will showcase an impressive collection of custom-built LEGO® creations by members of the LEGO User Group (LUG) community. From detailed cityscapes and iconic landmarks to fantasy worlds, vehicles, and original designs, visitors will have the opportunity to explore the creativity and craftsmanship behind some truly remarkable builds.


A Showcase of Imagination and Skill

The exhibition celebrates the creativity of LEGO® builders who have transformed thousands of individual bricks into intricate works of art.


Visitors can expect to see everything from bustling miniature cities and recognisable landmarks to imaginative fantasy scenes and complex vehicle displays. Each creation reflects countless hours of planning, design, and construction, offering inspiration for builders of all ages.


Whether you're a lifelong LEGO® fan or simply curious to see what can be achieved with the iconic building blocks, the exhibition promises plenty to discover.



A Family-Friendly School Holiday Outing

Designed for visitors of all ages, the exhibition offers an engaging experience for toddlers, preschoolers, school-aged children, teenagers, and adults alike.


The displays provide plenty of opportunities for photographs, close-up viewing, and conversations about the creativity and problem-solving involved in building with LEGO®. For younger visitors, it is a chance to see how imagination can be transformed into something tangible, while older fans and collectors can appreciate the technical skill behind the larger and more detailed creations.


As a free event hosted within one of Johannesburg's premier shopping destinations, it also makes for an easy and accessible family outing during the school holidays.


Discover the LEGO® Community

The exhibition also highlights the work of South Africa's passionate LEGO® User Group community, whose members regularly create custom builds that push the boundaries of what can be achieved with LEGO® bricks.


Their displays demonstrate the versatility of the medium, showcasing everything from realistic architectural models to entirely original worlds and concepts.


For aspiring builders, the exhibition offers a chance to gain inspiration and see first-hand how creativity, patience, and technical skill come together in every build.
