LEGO Pirates is one of the best LEGO event ever held in Medan.

For 3 weeks, Sun Plaza guests experienced the “LEGO” environment.

Entering the mall main door, you will be greeted by “friendly” pirates from the mall customer service.

The main attraction of course will be the LEGO Pirate Showcase : a huge 6×8m2 display of LEGO City and the Pirates World

In the center of the showcase was the brand new 2.15m high pirates built up with 20,800 pieces of LEGO! The first pirate was built and exhibited in the US, and Medan has the honor to receive a brand new one from LEGO and be the first in Asia (2nd in the world) to show it off to LEGO fans in Asia.

I will be posting the rest of the activities on next post :

In these few years, many LEGO events have been held in Medan. But does anyone know, what is the first LEGO event or competition being held here?

It was Sunday, 09 May 2004, located at the ex-Daimarutama Supermarket – Sinar Plaza
Theme : Racers Competition

Although it was the first competition ever been held, but the response was fantastic. Medanese were so enthusiastic. Kids and their parents came to join the competition, bringing their own LEGO Racers, which by then was one of the first LEGO product sold in Medan.

The competition itself was carried out in 2 phase :

- Build & race

- Race car modification

The local team has worked hard and get the best reward, kids and parents were happy, the event was a success and we continue with the next competition & event.
