The exhibition, which has drawn over 10 million visitors worldwide and was named one of CNN’s “Must-See” exhibitions, features more than 130 works created from over one million LEGO bricks. The collection ranges from life-size human figures to reimagined versions of well-known masterpieces, including Michelangelo’s David, Van Gogh’s Starry Night and Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa.

One of the centrepieces is a six-metre-long Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton built entirely from LEGO bricks. Visitors will also encounter a LEGO safari and the “Perniciem” collection, which highlights endangered animals through brick-built sculptures. Two multimedia photography series, created in collaboration with award-winning photographer Dean West, add another dimension to the show.
