Run a family starfighter build challenge
Invite families to build an original starfighter from LEGO bricks in a public, hands-on challenge inspired by Star Wars’ return to cinemas.
Newsjack angle: Stage the build challenge in a public venue this week and pitch the spectacle to consumer and entertainment desks.
Why: A participatory family event turns the shift towards cinema into something people can see and take part in.
