Pirates take over The Lexicon
Published 27 January 2025
This February half term, The Lexicon invites families for a FREE thrilling pirate adventure from Friday, 14 February to Sunday, 23 February.
Visitors can join a fun-filled treasure hunt around town, discovering 12 life-sized brick models (Iconic Bricks), including the notorious Captain Blackbird, his shipmates, the 6 monkeys and other hidden treasures along the way.
Pick up a treasure map at Princess Square or outside The Avenue car park to uncover the clues. Participants will also have the chance to win one of two £50 gift cards from The Lexicon.
During the week, younger adventurers, aged eight and under, can enjoy swashbuckling 20-minute storytelling sessions. While creative explorers of all ages can book for a 50-minute session at the Pirate Brick Zone, run by The Brick People in Princess Square, to make their own pirate props.
Please note two additional days (Wednesday 19 and Friday 21 February) have been added for the Pirate Brick Zone activity - the details are below.
