Following on from their successful Autumn season, the Army Flying Museum at Middle Wallop hopes to continue bringing new audiences through its doors as it announces its first collaboration with The Brick People.
On the weekend of the 4th and 5th of February, the Museum will stage a large-scale event featuring a wide range of LEGO® related activities which is sure to attract enthusiasts of all ages from far and wide. Nestled amongst the historic aircraft in the Museum, visitors will have the opportunity to build super flying machines out of LEGO® bricks, take part in a speed build challenge, complete an anagram trail around the Museum and browse a wide range of models on display. There will also be a LEGO® Duplo® area for younger builders.
Steve Hodges Co-Founder of The Brick People said:
“We are excited to be able to bring our popular events featuring LEGO® bricks, to the Army Flying Museum in February 2023. Having toured a lot of the South of the UK with various brick building opportunities and displays, to finally be able to come to this amazing venue to unite even more LEGO® enthusiasts young and old, is a real privilege and we couldn’t think of a more spectacular museum than the Army Flying Museum!”
The launch of this event follows on from a wide range of events that the Museum has staged this Autumn, with visitor figures above average for both October and November.
Chief Executive of the Army Flying Museum Lucy Johnson said:
“It has been wonderful to see so many new faces through our doors, not only to enjoy our wide range of new events, but also to learn about the history of army aviation and enjoy the sights on the adjacent airfield as the Apache helicopters fly by. We are really excited about our collaboration with The Brick People and think the surroundings of the Museum will make this a very special event indeed.”
The event will run across the weekend of 4th/5th February with two sessions per day and bookings can be made via the Museum website at:
