One of the largest national touring shows featuring all things Lego bricks is coming to Fresno this summer to entertain families.

Brick Fest Live is coming to the Fresno Convention Center July 22-23. Presale activities for tickets begin Friday.

The event features life-size models made from bricks, hands on activities and attractions, live entertainment including contestants from the Lego Masters television show, Minecraft zone, glow zone, a floor mural and giant pit featuring 200,000 bricks that people can dive into and take photos in.

Brick Fest Live is produced by Pennsylvania-based Open World Events, which is not affiliated with the Lego company based in Denmark.

Chad Collins created Brick Fest Live in 2014 after he and his daughter started a YouTube channel devoted to Lego creations.

“After posting nearly 500 videos and accumulating more than 11 million views, they decided to gather the LEGO community in person. Now Brick Fest Live is the #1 touring LEGO event in the U.S., winning multiple Guinness World Records and attracting more than 500,000 fans since its inception in 2014,” according to a news release.

Tickets range from $16.99 to $39.99.
