Hide AdIt is one of six locations across the UK taking part in the Roald Dahl Day initiative, an annual celebration on and around September 13, the writer’s birthday.
This is a groundbreaking collaboration between Roald Dahl and LEGO® - two icons of childhood, both beloved by kids and parents alike.
The six Roald Dahl character builds have been created by Duncan Titmarsh - the UK’s only certified LEGO® professional builder - and his team at the Bright Bricks workshop in Bordon, Hampshire.
Each of the characters stands c. 1 metre high and is composed from between 8850 and 36,517 bricks. A grand total of 102,937 bricks were used across the six brick builds.
