Get ready for a blockbuster … errr, block-builder weekend. The Orlando Brick Convention — purported to be the first of its kind locally — aims to bring together LEGO obsessives of all ages for a hands-on and “minds-on” experience.

Expect to encounter LEGO masters, see LEGO city builds and displays of all sorts, build your own sets and purchase a mind-boggling selection of LEGO and LEGO-adjacent figures, sets and bricks. There will even be meets-and-greets with LEGO celebrities.

A portion of the proceeds from this convention will be donated to Creations for Charity, a volunteer nonprofit organization that buys new LEGO sets for underprivileged children for the holidays.

10 a.m., March 18-19, Osceola Heritage Park, 1901 Chief Osceola Trail, Kissimmee, ohpark.com, $15.
