This weekend will see the legendary Le Mans 24 race take place. The ultimate endurance race is also celebrating its 100th anniversary.

As Heartlake City continues to expand with new characters and locations, the latest LEGO® Friends sets continue to follow the adventures of the new gang of Friends.
