“The Brick Bar is a kids’ party for adults. We’re all big kids at heart, and we want to stay that way,” said Brick Bar creator, James Farrell.
Grab some friends for a game of ping pong on a table built of more than 22,000 LEGOs while listening to local DJs spin tunes. Channel your creativity into a LEGOs masterpiece and compete for prizes, and for the LEGOs challenged, jump into the ball pit, check out the LEGO sculptures and enjoy your favorite adult beverage served in a colorful souvenir LEGO-shaped cup.
Brick Bar’s creative director, Demi Montgomery, said some brick-themed drinks are in the works, and those non-creative types shouldn’t worry whether they’ll have fun.
“That’s the fun of Brick Bar, even if you are not a creative person. I have seen a lot of people create their names in fun ways. We also have large Everblocks, which are easier to create chairs and other structures that take less time.”
The $20 tickets include entry for 90 minutes. Anyone 18 and under can attend before 6 p.m. and must be accompanied by an adult. Reserve your spot. This is not an official LEGO event.
