The Auckland LEGO Train Group is putting on a display in a couple of weeks' time in Auckland, New Zealand, on Queen's Birthday Weekend, 1 - 3rd June.
It's being held at the Corban Estate Arts Center, 426 Great North Rd, Henderson and it'll be open 10 am - 6 pm Saturday and Sunday, 10 - 4pm Monday. Entry is just $2 per person.
Last year's show was a huge success, with over 12,000 visitors, so if you're in the area head on down there -- early!
There's more information on the group's Facebook page.
Interestingly, we in the UK, don't bother celebrating the Queen's birthday or naming the weekend ...
