ANNOUNCEMENT: First HUB Event in Asia located!

Posted by Jacky Chen on December 20th 2016

Dear RLUG Ambassadors,

Today, with an exciting mood, I would like to announce on behalf of LCE that the HUB event application from Japan Brickfest is officially approved! The event will be hosted in Kobe, Japan at the 1st weekend of June (10th & 11th), with some additional activities arranged in the days before and after.

Some of you might notice that the Japan Brickfest is on the exact same weekend as the Paredes de Coura Fan Weekend. We are fully aware of the fact that AFOLs wish to visit both (me as well), thus we are working with the event committee for the future dates. However the last thing we want to do is to ruin a great event by forcing them to make changes to the dates if it simply is not right, and we also believe the world and the AFOL community is big enough to have two great HUB events in the same weekend for now.

We are very happy to have the first HUB event located in Asia where it will play a significant role of connecting AFOLs in this region. As told by the event committee, the 1st round of registration has already attracted 150+ AFOLs and the 2nd round will be open shortly. Stay tuned!

As for the other two HUB events, the event is driven and owned by an AFOL steering group – Kansai LUG in this case. Please feel free to reach out to their ambassador Edwin Knight if you have any questions or inquiries.

There we go! Japan Brickfest – Kobe Fan Weekend!
