Thanks for Making World War Brick 2025 Awesome!

World War Brick 2025 (our fourteenth!) is now one for the books! We had a total of 179 Weekend Pass holders, who brought over 250 awesome MOCs to display, hosted hundreds of visitors during public hours, and raised over $15k for the Veterans. Thanks everyone for chipping in and making it happen! We hope to host the next one somewhere on the West Coast for those who have been patiently waiting for our return. Watch this space for updates on WWB 2026!

WWB 2025 Mosaic Build

It’s not World War Brick without a mosaic build! This time we’re paying tribute to our hometown’s namesake cruiser from World War II. We’re planning to install this piece at our GHQ headquarters store, next to the amazing Cobra King, made by eleven years ago at World War Brick 2014!
If you are visiting town this weekend for World War Brick, you should check out the Greatest Generation exhibit at the Minnesota History Center, where the ship’s flag is now on display. USS Minneapolis participated in campaigns in the Pacific all throughout World War II, earning 17 Battle Stars. She is most noted for surviving a battle off Guadalcanal, during which most of her bow was shorn off following Japanese torpedo hit. After a harrowing journey back to the USA for repairs, she then returned to the Pacific Fleet, serrving through the end of the war.

Don’t forget to visit the Brickmania GHQ Store during your World War Brick outing and the see the collossal Cobra King mosaic built in years past! The store will be open for normal business hours for during World War Brick and a ticket is not required.
Lando Sweetens the Deal!
