In news thatโll have enthusiasts and casuals alike bricked up (present company included), Sydney is just days away from officially welcoming the worldโs largest LEGO store.
But this forthcoming 900-square-metre paradise for assemble-it-yourself fun โ which effectively dethrones Londonโs Leicester Square flagship; as well as bringing the Harbour City on par with the international likes of New York, Hong Kong, and Copenhagen โ wonโt just be a place where you can cop a kit.

As it so happens, itโll feature Australiaโs very first Minifigure Factory, where you can create LEGO versions of yourself (or whoever you so choose, really).
You can also expect the following:
- the obligatory Pick & Build Wall
- hands-on play areas
- Australia-centric features such as massive sculptures referencing our culture
- plus in-store builds and monthly events
โEvery new store contributes to the LEGO Groupโs global mission of inspiring and developing the builders of tomorrow,โ noted LEGO ANZ Vice President & General Manager Troy Taylor.
โWith immersive features, creative play experiences and playful nods to culture, Sydneyโs new store will give LEGO fans of all ages the chance to discover a wide range of LEGO products and exciting digital and physical experiences.โ

He added: โWe hope the unveiling of the worldโs largest LEGO Store in Australia will delight both local and international brick fans, whilst creating lasting memories and standing as a tribute to the creative possibilities of the globally-famous LEGO brick.โ
The worldโs largest LEGO store โ and soon-to-be the countryโs flagship location for bricked fun โ opens its doors in Sydney Arcade (overlooking Pitt Street Mall) on Saturday November 11th at precisely 9:30 AM.
Perhaps itโll be worth making the pilgrimage just for that epic 2,083-piece Concorde set.
