I recently received some tickets for the 2015 LEGO KidsFest from #USFG (UsFamilyGuide) for blogging about the event.  My son is a LEGO fanatic – he builds all kinds of things and has loved these toys for many years.  We’ve never been able to go to a KidsFest before, so the boys couldn’t wait!! I let my husband and son use the tickets and they invited a friend and his Dad to have a “Guys Day”…or so they said!!

The event was about 3.5 hours away from our home, so the Dad’s took the day off of work and started driving.  The arrived at the event and every one of them said that they loved it!!  So many fun things to do and see.

Here are some photos of their fun trip – again, thanks you LEGO and #USFamilyGuide for letting my guys have such a great time!!

Those who attended the previous show can once again expect hands-on building, creative experiences and one-of-a-kind activities. Children of all ages and builders of all skills and levels are welcome.

LEGO KidsFest features dozens of new activities and popular favorites on the three-acre show floor.

New activities for this year’s visit include LEGO Mindstorms, LEGO Movie, LEGO Fusion, LEGO Disney Princess, the Mixels, a LEGO Superheroes area and more.

Once again, show-goers can enjoy the LEGO Model Museum, Race Ramps, Creation Nation, Construction Zone, LEGO DUPLO, LEGO Retail store and LEGO KidsFest Marketplace, the Big Brick Pile, LEGO Ninjago and more.

“We’re thrilled to be returning to the Phoenix area,” said Vince Rubino, LEGO Events Manager. “We’ve got a host of new activities as well as some areas we know are very popular with our fans. Not only will families create some new memories at the show, they’ll get another chance to flex and showcase their building skills.”

Five identical sessions are available for the three-day tour stop. LEGO KidsFest tickets are $22.50 for adults and $19.50 for children and can be purchased online at http://www.legokidsfest.com.
