Lego-palooza returns to Morehead Planetarium and Science Center for two days in January.

The free event, launched in 2005 by the North Carolina LEGO Users Group, features intricate Lego exhibits with scenes of outer space, trains, amusement parks, city landmarks and more. The event is best for ages 6 and older (there may be brief waits to enter to see the exhibits), but younger children are welcome.

Hours are 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., Jan. 27, and 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., Jan. 28, at the Chapel Hill center at 250 E. Franklin St.

Morehead also will have a full slate of planetarium shows, which require a ticket, and Science Live shows, which are free, that weekend as well.
