The LEGO Group today (Thursday 28 August) opened the doors to its first Northern Ireland LEGO® Store in Belfast.
The store was officially opened by Dáithí Mac Gabhann, who is widely recognised and loved in Northern Ireland after he became known for inspiring a change in the law around organ donation.
Located in the Victoria Square shopping centre, the new 165sqm LEGO Store is already delighting fans of all ages, as they gathered excitedly this morning to catch the official opening.
The store is open seven days a week from 28th August 2025 and features a range of experiences including:
- LEGO Pick a Brick Wall: a great way for customers to select the exact elements that they require for their builds.
- Hands-on Play Opportunities: including free build challenges and events each month.
- Build a Minifigure Tower: visitors can mix and match from a wide selection of bottoms, tops, heads, hair pieces and accessories to customise LEGO minifigures.
- Store Associates: whether customers are picking out a gift, looking for the latest set, or bringing a LEGO fan in for a special treat, the LEGO team can help find the perfect set for everyone.
Shweta Munshi, Vice President Marketing, LEGO Retail at the LEGO Group, said: “We are very excited to have welcomed customers into our brand-new store in Victoria Square today. We have always had a loyal fan base here in Northern Ireland and we’re delighted to be able to bring our first LEGO store experience to Belfast.
“This new store is a place where imagination comes to life, and where children and adults alike can find inspiration and joy from our wide range of LEGO sets, plus plenty of opportunities to play with the bricks from building LEGO Minifigures to free building events.”
This new store is the 23rd LEGO Store in UK and Ireland and brings with it the creation of 19 new jobs within the local community.
