Live Out Your Childhood Dreams at the Brick Convention in Lafayette

LAFAYETTE, La. (KPEL News) – From building colorful castles to battling imaginary dragons across the living room floor, LEGO® bricks have been a part of childhood memories for generations. And now, for the first time ever, those childhood dreams are coming to life right here in Acadiana.

The Brick Convention, a nationally touring LEGO fan experience, is coming to Blackham Coliseum in Lafayette this summer—and it promises to be a brick-lover’s paradise.
