European LEGO exhibitions and displays

Overview

Large-scale LEGO exhibitions and displays are being featured across Europe. In Lisbon, a major exhibition at the Cordoaria Nacional is recognized as Europe’s largest, spanning 2,000 square meters. The display features over 120 models constructed from approximately 15 million pieces.

Notable attractions include an 11-meter-long replica of the Air Force One Boeing 747, built by a six-person team over six months using roughly one million pieces. Other massive structures include a 900,000-piece Spinosaurus, the ‘Great Red Dragon’ medieval dragon, and the ‘King of the Seas’ cruise ship model, which consists of over 700,000 pieces. The exhibition covers themes such as cinema, sports, science, and the Star Wars universe, alongside educational displays on biology and geography. The event is scheduled to run until January 2027.

In France, community-driven events are also gaining attention. An upcoming exhibition in Liffré, organized by the Breizh Bricks association, will feature original constructions in a 500 m² space. Additionally, individual collectors are showcasing massive personal displays, such as a 2.70-meter-high themed wall utilizing IKEA shelving.
