The news was originally revealed to members of the LEGO Ambassador Network that LEGO CON 2023 will not be held even though it seemed to be successful this year. The live event hasn’t been cancelled but instead put on hiatus, meaning it will hopefully return in 2024 or beyond.

As a fan of the previous two events the show did seem overhyped and underwhelming, making it more ‘Adult’ may be the future to its success, but who knows where LEGO will take it.

Hopefully LEGO CON will return and be even better after a year or so off. Watch this space for more details.

Grab Yourself Some LEGO CON 2022 Merch! https://www.thebrickpost.com/news/grab-yourself-some-lego-con-2022-merch/ https://www.thebrickpost.com/news/grab-yourself-some-lego-con-2022-merch/#respond Tue, 28 Jun 2022 07:35:11 +0000 https://www.thebrickpost.com/?p=19821 If you enjoyed LEGO CON 2022 and I mean really enjoyed it, you can can now show your love by purchasing a branded t-shirt or hoodie!

The only down side is that you’ll need to live in North America or Canada to bag them. They both feature the LEGO CON logo on the front and a 2022 brick on the back. Each one is available in Small, Medium, Large, and Extra Large sizes.

I’m not sure why these aren’t available in other regions, perhaps we’ll see them popup soon?
