Who Are We?

Howdy! Founded in 2014, The Dallas/Fort Worth LEGO User Group is a diverse group of individuals passionate about the LEGO hobby! We have everyone from amateur hobbyists, set and minifig collectors, train enthusiasts, professional and semi-pro builders, TECHNIC and robotics experts, and even counselors who use LEGO bricks in therapy. We meet about 30 times a year including at our local LEGO stores where we have different creative themed building contests each month. We have displayed at and supported local AFOL conventions including Brick Rodeo, BrickUniverse, Brick Fest Live, and our own BrickConnection. We have also run contests and fundraising events for museums, educational institutions, and Scout councils. We enjoy giving back to the community through supporting various nonprofits including Creations for Charity and FairyBricks. We also do set drafts, parts trading, and have an annual Christmas party. We have plenty of opportunities to get involved whether you’re a casual or serious fan of LEGO. We also strive to maintain an inclusive and family-friendly atmosphere at all of our meetings and events.

Need a LEGO display at your event?

We love to help nonprofits and do so free of charge whenever possible. There are various opportunities we have access to where we can also possibly reach out to the LEGO Group for support as well. We can also assist connecting for-profit businesses to trusted local LEGO artists and experts we have worked with or who are our members.

How do I join?

Membership in DFWLUG is free and open to adults (ages 18 and up). It's simple to become a member: Join us in person at a total of two meetings or events, and pay $24 in yearly dues (prorated monthly depending on when you join). You're encouraged to bring something you've made or are currently making out of LEGO. We love to give constructive feedback (pun intended!). We meet around 30 times per year, so it's easy to join us. Check out our calendar on the events page to find meeting dates, times, and locations. Be sure to ask about being added to our closed email group at your first meeting. Joining the group allows you to be a part of a RLUG (Recognized LEGO User Group) membership which grants you AFOL (Adult Fan of LEGO) status on your LEGO VIP card. This status entitles you to a special gift with purchase exclusive to AFOLs at various times in the year!

What benefits are there for joining?

There are many benefits to joining DFWLUG, not the least of which is an opportunity to connect with some local friendly LEGO fans! As a Recognized LEGO User Group (RLUG), there are many opportunities that LEGO provides us with, some of which we are happy to explain at your first meeting in-person with us. Some ways that LEGO has supported us recently include: networking opportunities, special shopping events including exclusive sets, beta testing opportunities for online games, unique contests (usually done monthly) with prizes, opportunities for free LEGO sets and brick by participating at our various meetings and events, discounted or free opportunities to participate in LEGO-themed conventions, and even opportunities to make money building LEGO models.
