Past KockeFests

22nd KockeFest – 16 and 17 March 2019

The world is huge, but it's shrinking. Our beloved exhibition has many loyal visitors and LEGO bricks admirers and on the contrary is not very large, but is constantly growing in the lobby of the Elementary School Koseze and is leaving its footprint in a global hustle. In this colorful chaos, we are becoming more and more recognized locally and globally - this time, already 22nd KockeFest, had a strong international note, as it attracted not only our strong and healthy nucleus of long-time exhibitors, but a colorful society of local youth and friends of bricks from 4 countries: Austria, Croatia, Germany and Slovakia.
Fun and joy were everywhere. If a smile was not brought to our ears by our loud pirate at the door, a large centrally positioned amusement park with running amusement rides, including a large rollercoaster, lifted the spirits and pulled into a head-spinning adventure. A wild ride drove the visitors past the fantastic selection of smaller and bigger creations, full of stunning details and imaginatively used bricks and building techniques. After an abundance of fun and adrenaline, everyone was happy to walk past the large LEGO DUPLO display of the Ljubljana Zoo. A mandatory pirate's greeting at the exit and... the visitors probably left our exhibition already wondering what the next one will bring. We're already thinking ahead about 23rd and 24th Kockefest, but until then, you can reminisce the 22nd in the gallery below...

We would also like to thank the sponsors listed below, who made KockeFest even more beautiful!
