You might remember our model of Westminster Abbey from last year? Well, this year we've got an even larger model! This stadium seats upto 10,000 LEGO minifigures and weighs in at over 100Kg!
More over, you can be a part of this build! We need to populate the stadium with an audience and you can help out whilst raising money for charity! We've teamed up with Key 103's Cash for Kids campaign. The LEGO Show is asking you to donate a minifig to help fill our stadium! For each minifig that you donate to the stadium, we'll in turn donate to help underprivileged children.
