The Star Wars universe has always been an inexhaustible source of inspiration and fun for millions of people around the world. Since its first film in 1977, the franchise has left an indelible mark on popular culture, generating legions of fans and giving rise to countless events and celebrations in its honor.
Today, Saturday May 4, known as World Star Wars Day, the galactic fever arrives to Lego stores in Barcelona with a unique initiative: a free workshop to create figures from the saga. A not-to-be-missed opportunity for all construction fans and lovers.
Lego Barcelona celebrates Star Wars Day
The participating stores, located in Paseig de Gràcia, l’Illa Diagonal and La Maquinista, will open their doors to welcome those who wish to immerse themselves in the Star Wars universe in a whole new way.
But there is a prerequisite: to be previously registered in the Lego community. Fortunately, this registration can be completed both in person and virtually, which facilitates participation for all interested parties.
Once registered, participants will have access to all relevant information about the event. In addition to the figure-making workshop, Lego Insiders members will enjoy exclusive discounts on a selection of Lego Star Wars sets.
This is a perfect opportunity to expand your collection or start a new one.
But the surprises don’t end there. For the purchase of the new Lego Star Wars Interceptor Tie set, you will earn double points.
And for those who make purchases above certain amounts, exclusive gifts are offered, such as the Trade Federation Troop Carrier, the Lego Star Wars Collect Battle of Yavin or the AAT assault vehicle. These offers are valid only until May 5 and are available to registered members.
Why has May 4th become Star Wars Day?
The answer lies in a clever play on words. The phrase “May the force be with you”, so emblematic of the saga, is pronounced similarly to “May the 4th (fourth) be with you”. This play on words has given rise to a global celebration that brings together fans of all ages and nationalities.
Star Wars Day is an opportunity to celebrate the shared passion for this iconic franchise. And thanks to initiatives like Lego’s, fans have the opportunity to actively participate in this celebration, taking home a unique and special piece created by themselves.
May the force be with you on your trip to the Lego stores in Barcelona.
