LEGO Competition Q&A
What times are the different age brackets competing?
For the most flexibility for families, each competitor will get their own start time. These rolling start times let entire families maximize their visit by competing all at the same time and not waiting around for timed group sessions. Competitors will be placed at a build station and given a 1 hour timer. When the timer goes off, a LEGO expert will come to judge the creation and mark their scores. One winner will be selected in each bracket and be announced on social media Saturday, November 6 after 7pm.
Where do I sign up ahead of the competition?
There’s no need to sign up ahead! Once arriving, head over to our competition arena to get signed in. Due to COVID safety, we are limiting the number of competitors in the arena at one time. If the arena is full, you’ll get a ticket with your start time and can explore the museum before returning for your competition time.
When will you announce a winner?
One winner will be selected in each bracket and be announced on social media Saturday, November 6 after 7pm. We’ll coordinate with the winner through social media how to claim their prize.
