A new month is upon us which means more competitive and just-for-fun building! Are you ready? Here’s the latest bunch of LEGO contests and challenges from all around the AFOL community for June 2026 to help you find some inspiration and motivation to build! There’s nothing quite like a theme or a prompt to nudge you out of your comfort zone and push you to experiment building in ways you might not otherwise attempt.
We’ve listed them in order of deadline so you can plan your building time wisely—especially in a month that always seems to fly by. Be sure to check the LEGO activity calendar for local challenges and events near you. Some of our fondest memories, proudest builds, coolest trophies, and strongest friendships started with a contest entry, so we hope you’ll jump in and give one (or two) a try.
