Due to the issues caused by COVID-19, the LEGO® House attraction in Billund has been running virtual talks online over the summer and the penultimate takes place tomorrow. The tour taking place this week covers events occurring between 1979 – 2001, a time in which Kjeld Kirk Kristiansen took charge and a number of changes took place across the LEGO Group. Each online live tour will last around an hour and you can even ask questions during the tour. For each tour, there will be two sessions on each day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. These will be running to Billund time, so make sure you can take part before signing up. Full details can be found below, including the sign-up link.
LEGO House Live Tours – a new initiative
Many LEGO® fans from all over the world are not able to visit LEGO House due to the restrictions of the COVID-19 outbreak.
For all of you we are now opening up the History Collection in the basement of LEGO House to invite you to join the free LEGO House Live Tours where we introduce you to the history of the LEGO Group.
The LEGO Group started back in 1932 and its history is full of stories and play. To provide an in-depth live tour we offer 5 individual tours based on 5 important chapters of the LEGO Group’s history. The tour will be hosted by a LEGO historian, who is an expert in LEGO history, and you will be able to ask questions during the session via Live Chat. The tour guide will answer your questions live.
We offer several sessions per tour. There are different timings of the sessions to cater for the different time zones you live in. Please be aware that we operate in Billund time (CET). We kindly ask you to convert the timing to your time zone.
Duration of each tour is 60 minutes. It’s free to participate but registration prior to the event is required.
