What is På Kloss Hold (PKH)?

På Kloss Hold is the largest AFOL event in Norway and this year is the 13th time we hold this event!
This year the event is back to it's regular three days duration. We usually have more than 100 AFOLs from several countries participating. The public can visit the exhibition on Saturday and Sunday, and we are expecting at least 4000 visitors during those two days.

PKH is about showing the diversity of our LEGO hobby to visitors, meeting old and new friends and getting inspired. The non-profit Norwegian rLUG Brikkelauget is the organizer of this event, but it is open for all members of any rLUG worldwide. The money raised by this event goes back to the event and Brikkelauget. We spend money on a gift bag and food for participants, our way of saying "thank you" for bringing your LEGO and helping us make this an amazing event. We also have multiple competitions - best MOC, best exhibition, etc., with some nice LEGO prizes. During the event we also have a few presentations, workshops and interviews with both Norwegian and international presenters and guests. And on Saturday evening there is the AFOL dinner: Food, auction, competition, awards, quiz, fun and laughter. But there is one thing most participants love more than anything about PKH: The other participants, who make the event feel the way it does. It's low key and friendly, so if you walk around and talk to other participants, I am pretty sure you will get some new LEGO friends.

Who can participate?

Any AFOL! The event is aimed at AFOLs, Adult Fans of LEGO. So if you build MOCs (My Own Creation), sets, collect LEGOstuff or whatever, this is the place for you :) Don't be afraid of participating with your own builds, this is a friendly enviroment and everyone builds and participate with whatever they want on the level they are!

Is there a registration fee?

No, as an AFOL you participate for free! 

Food during the event

There will be meals during the event - and they're all free (except cakes in the kiosk, of course ;) )! BUT - please register what meals you will be attending so that we know how much food we need to get. The AFOL-dinner on Saturday will cost a little sum, and you pay for drinks yourself. The rest of the meals - dinner on Friday, and lunch on Saturday and Sunday are free. 

What is expected from me as a participant?

First of all; LEGO! We want an exhibition that shows the diversity of our hobby. We want an exhibition of huge and small MOCs, old an new ones, everything is welcome even if you have exhibited it at PKH or another exhibition before! We also would like to show old and new LEGOsets, or modified versions of sets. Or maybe you have other products made by the LEGO Company? Bring them and show them to the public.

There is also an expectation that you're available by your model during the opening hours, to talk to the visitors about your amazing model! PKH will also not supply people to guard your model when you're not there. 

How can you contribute during the weekend?

We will hire some help for the setup and during the event, but we still need help from participating AFOLs. There will also be a need for some help during the event to look after parts of the exhibition. So please help out when you're asked to - and if you see something that needs to be fixed or done, feel free to do it :) The most important thing is that you bring a smile and have a good time!

There will also be some specific tasks we need volunteers for. More on them on the "Contributing as a participant" page, found in the menu to the left (coming soon).
