LEGO Star Wars May the 4th 2024 events

There are plenty of events to look forward to over May the 4th for LEGO enthusiasts. Select LEGO stores will be offering Make & Take events of Star Wars characters on May 4 and 5 and selected LEGO stores will invite you to build a part of a massive LEGO Star Wars mural too.

The Leicester Square LEGO store in London will be displaying the giant R2-D2 model showcased online earlier this year from May 1 to June 2 and then it will move to the Disney Springs LEGO store at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida throughout June.

Some LEGO stores will be hosting designer meet and greets too, though details for these have yet to be revealed. What we do know though is that LEGO R2-D2 headbands will be given away in select LEGO stores from May 1 to 5.

The LEGO Star Wars 25th anniversary film festival which opens on April 22 and culminates on May 4 too. You can find out more about the film festival by clicking here. The important thing to note is that anyone who enters can score some free digital items on the LEGO Insiders Rewards Centre.

Rounding out the events, something LEGO Star Wars is coming to LEGO Fortnite (the survival crafting mode within Fortnite) on May 3. We’re still waiting for further details on what exactly this entails, but it could be significant.

LEGO Star Wars May the 4th 2024 LEGO Insiders offers

As well as the free 5008818 Battle of Yavin collectable when LEGO Insiders spend over £80 / $90 / €90 between May 1 and 5, LEGO Insiders can also pick up a limited print designed by artist Joe Hogan for 1,800 points.

We’re not currently sure when this reward is going live but it might be wise to expect it to be available between May 1 and 5 to coincide with the rest of the event. A first look at this print may be teasing a rumoured minifigure as well.

LEGO Star Wars May the 4th 2024 new book

One of the most unique items available for May the 4th isn’t a LEGO Star Wars set, but a book. The Force of Creativity debuts on July 20 on LEGO.com for £129.99 / $149.99 / €149.99 and is authored by former Brick Fanatics editor Graham E. Hancock.

Expect interviews, behind-the-scenes secrets and more from the LEGO Star Wars archives and more across 312 pages. Pre-orders start on May 1 but note that this is the only LEGO Star Wars item that is ineligible for any of the free items offered from May 1 to 5. Plan your purchases accordingly.

LEGO Star Wars May the 4th 2024 live stream

A LEGO Star Wars May the 4th 2024 livestream is taking place on May 1, including special offers, set reveals, a designer presentation and exciting giveaways. It’s taking place on May 1 at 7:30pm GMT in the UK, 8pm / 5pm PT in the US and 6:30pm CET in Germany.

The press release’s times may include some errors, providing multiple slots for the same timezone in the US. We’ll update you should we learn more but further promotion will likely provide clarity closer to May 1.

It appears to be split into multiple livestreams each with a giveaway for those tuning in. More details have yet to be revealed and this is a brand new addition to the regular May the 4th LEGO Star Wars content.

It’s looking to be a full May the 4th for LEGO Star Wars enthusiasts and you can keep track of everything using our dedicated page as we approach the big day.
