Start your engines (and your stud shooters). The British Motor Show is back August 15–17 at the Farnborough International Exhibition & Conference Centre, and this year it comes with a very on-brand pit crew: the LEGO Group and Smyths Toys. The duo are co-hosting a special live stage all show long — think challenges, quizzes, prizes and plenty of bricks.

What’s happening on the live stage?
Expect high-energy brick action with a rotating set list:
- LEGO Big Build challenges – team up or fly solo to build against the clock.
- Sprint-for-prizes races – quick-fire tasks with the chance to win some very decent goodies.
- Tim’s Big Quiz – hop on stage, nail the rapidfire questions, and you could bag LEGO freebies.
That’s just the start. The programme also includes:
- Careers panels covering routes into the automotive world.
- Young car designers sharing how they broke into the industry.
- A Dragon’s Denstyle pitch session where companies present new products and ideas.
Pop by the Smyths Toys LEGO Pit Stop Shop
Make a quick stop (or a long one). You can build your own adventure, check out the latest LEGO vehicles, and — if temptation wins — pick up a set (or three) to take home.
Tickets & pricing
Tickets are limited, so it’s worth grabbing them ahead of time from the event’s official site.
- Singleday family ticket (4 people): from £69.90
- Threeday family pass: £139.80
Why this is our kind of crossover
Cars. Bricks. Friendly chaos. Whether you’re there for supercars or Speed Champions, the LEGO x Smyths live stage adds a handson, familyfriendly hub right in the middle of the horsepower. See you in Farnborough.
