    We have partnered with the Murray City Library to display LEGO creations! For the month of January, the display cases are filled with builds Like everything at the library, this is free for the public to enjoy whenever the library is open.

    The display is to promote their new monthly LEGO building event for kids, which is held on the third Wednesday evening of each month.

    Held at the Stadler US facility, the train show offered rail enthusiasts a chance to see the manufacturing facility where they build commuter trains.

    The ULUG train loop had eighteen connected displays from sixteen builders, covering around 450 square feet of Lego. Two tracks circled the entire space, and destinations along the route included:

    • A train yard.
    • A train station.
    • A construction site.
    • An impressive grain silo.
    • Harry Potter, Minecraft, Animal Crossing, and other pop culture-inspired areas .
  • FanX 2025

    FanX 2025

    Utah’s largest comic and media convention, FanX is an annual chance for fans to meet celebrities, dress in cosplay, attend panels, and engage with their favorite fandoms. It is the largest comic convention per capita in North America!

    ULUG brought several builds to delight fans and show the variety of things that LEGO can do – from mosaics inspired by Star Wars and the Big Bang Theory, to brick-built video game scenes from Pokémon, Minecraft, to pirate ships big and… well, bigger! The show-stopping build was the 12-foot long collaboration: the up-scaled Black Seas Barracuda!

  • BrickSlopes 2025

    BrickSlopes 2025

    It was another successful year at BrickSlopes for ULUG and members! This year’s theme was “A Pirate’s Life for Me” and the show was open to the public for three days with thousands of attendees. As the largest event of the year in the mountain west for AFOLs (adult fans of LEGO), it was a great chance to connect with other builders, showcase our best builds, and share our love of the brick with the public.

    One staple of a LEGO convention is awards for the favorite MOCs of the judges, the attendees, and the public. ULUG members took home 13 awards!

    Once again, ULUG coordinated and hosted the train loop at BrickSlopes. In addition, dozens of ULUG members brought their MOCs and attended the convention to share their builds with the public. Here are some of the MOCs by ULUG members from the show:
