Jul 9th 2025 Sign-Up for Games Exhibitors, the "deadline" to sign-up for games is July 15. After that date the system will sort players into seats. Everyone signed-up by the 15th has the same chance to be seated in their favorite game. (Sort your game selections at your account page.) Those who previously signed-up for BIONICLE Trivia Challenge (2006 Edition) that game (and your signup) was deleted. Please sign-up again for BIONICLE Trivia Challenge: 2005/2015 Edition. (I apologize for losing those sign-ups.) And check out the Beverage Draft! And other newly added games listed atop the games page. |

Jul 4th 2025 Curation Exhibitors, we are now curating MOCs. We've always accepted all registered MOCs, but that is no longer an option. The Chantilly show keeps growing in popularity even after 18 years. We're not accepting any new LUGs or collabs for this show. Some themed areas are already full. Right now newly registered MOCs over a certain size are flagged for curation. Such MOCs are marked with "CURATION". When a staffer verifies we have space for the model, the label is removed. Thank you for understanding as we continue to grow in a building that isn't getting any bigger. |

Jul 2nd 2025 Cleanliness is Next to Godliness Hey exhibitors, 5 days 14 hours per day inside a convention hall is the devil's stinky playground. Remember kids, a shower a day keeps the Axe body spray away! |

Jun 29th 2025 Lights! Exhibitors, World of Lights takes place BrickFair Friday at 9:00pm. The venue lights are dimmed (as much as they'll allow), so we can appreciate the MOCs in their own lighting. Kim Chiu is supplying 2 extra prizes for lighted MOCs. One builder will, as always, win the Best Lighted MOC trophy. Two runners-up will receive free lighting kits from BlingBlingBrick. Simply bring a MOC that is lighted and you're entered. |
