What is a Recognized LEGO® User Group (rLUG)? (cerchi la versione in italiano, e nella scheda accanto)
We are a community of LEGO® brick enthusiasts (AFOLs) officially recognized by The LEGO Group through the LEGO® Ambassador Network (LAN) program. Ours is a non-profit group, run entirely by volunteers, which shares and promotes a stimulating environment to support like-minded fans.
The group is open to all skill levels and welcomes adults, teenagers, and children (the latter must always be accompanied by a parent). We organize regular in-person meetings (once a month, but also via LIVE STREAMING for special events and scheduled LIVE BUILDING sessions) to discuss projects, exhibitions, news, and, of course, to snap bricks together.
We organize public and private events for our members and the general public. Furthermore, our community actively collaborates and participates in exhibitions alongside other recognized groups and LUGs within the international network, interfacing directly with The LEGO Group through our Ambassador.
OrangeTeam achieved the status of Recognized LEGO® User Group (rLUG) right from the start and currently boasts numerous members from all over Italy, with deep roots in Tuscany but also active members in other regions, Europe, and the United States. Energy, passion, friendship, and great creativity are our hallmarks: one big family united by the same passion!

Our Strength: Diversity
The true strength of our group lies in the diversity and skills of its members: enthusiasts of photography, illustration, model making, robotics, cinema, and sci-fi. Thanks to this unique mix, our events stand out for the creation and presentation of one-of-a-kind original LEGO® creations (MOCs).
There is never a shortage of gathering and leisure moments: we regularly organize social nights and dinners to catch up, exchange ideas, and plan future dioramas. You can find our event history in the menu above.
Every year, we manage and take part in about ten national and international model-making shows and events, always putting public interaction at the center.
Our Flagship Event: PisaBrickArt
Exhibition of Original LEGO® brick Creations made by enthusiasts.
Our main event is PisaBrickArt, which successfully surpassed the milestone of its Eleventh Edition in 2025. The event draws an average of over 5,000 visitors and hosts more than 70 exhibitors and collectors from Italy and abroad. You can view the event history by clicking HERE. In addition to the splendid exhibition area, the event stands out for its high cultural and scientific content, hosting the "ITALIAN BRICKART CONTEST" (#IBC).
Great attention is paid to families and children, for whom we set up specific areas with our educational, artistic, and creative workshops, aiming to continuously reinvent ourselves and bring joy to as many children as possible.
