Exciting news for LEGO fans in Australia!

We’ll be getting potentially up to FIVE new LEGO Certified in the country BEFORE Christmas this year, according to Alceon Group, the investment company that opened the Sydney store, and the upcoming Auckland store.

They have confirmed that the second store they’ll be opening in Australia will be located the Broadway Shopping Centre in Sydney followed by Melbourne (woohoo!), Brisbane, the Gold Coast before Christmas.

This is pretty good news for the Australian retail scene which has been hit with plenty of bad news.

The flurry of store openings have undoubtedly been buoyed by the massive success of LEGO Masters Australia, which has been one of the biggest surprise hits in the Aussie media landscape this year.

Are you excited by the news? Unfortunately, Adelaide, Perth, Tassie and the Northern Territory aren’t included in the list but Alceon have signalled that they could see up to 20 stores opening if the conditions are right, so I expect most capital cities to eventually have their own LEGO Certified Store.

Update: Western Australia and South Australia will be getting theirs in 2020!
