This Summer, Derby Cathedral invites visitors to experience Brick by Brick – Building a Solid Foundation, a unique art installation and festival highlighting environmental sustainability through creativity and community engagement, using LEGO bricks.
At the heart of the festival is a first-of-its-kind, model of Derby Cathedral and the surrounding city centre, crafted entirely from LEGO bricks by renowned artist Brick This, showcasing local landmarks and businesses.
Public Admission – General Opening
Running from Friday 25th July to Thursday 21st August 2025, the event will be open during Cathedral hours (usually 9:00 – 17:00). Check our website and social media for opening restrictions and service times.
Entry to the Cathedral during the event will be free, with a suggested donation of £3 per person, raising vital funds towards the Cathedral’s goal of reaching Carbon Neutrality.

For the under 5’s we have a specific area to allow them to play and create, using Duplo and soft blocks.

For those with additional sensory needs, noise will be kept to a minimum and capacity numbers will be lower, to ensure a calmer experience.
