LEGO® User Groups, AFOL communities, and local LEGO® connections across Florida
Florida is a big state, and there is no reason every LEGO® fan has to look for a community in the same place.
Whether you’re looking for a LEGO® User Group (LUG), an Adult Fan of LEGO® (AFOL) community, a university LEGO® club, or simply other builders, this page is here to help you connect with a local LEGO® Fan Community near you.
Find a community near you. Build where you live. Connect wherever LEGO® takes you.
🤝 Collaboration, Not Competition
Florida’s LEGO® community is stronger when local groups work together.
RenLUG believes LEGO® User Groups can maintain their own identities, leadership, traditions, and local focus while sharing ideas, supporting one another, and collaborating on projects and events.
We’re here to connect communities — not compete with them.
The groups listed below are independently operated. They are not RenLUG chapters or branches, and being listed here does not imply that RenLUG manages, represents, or speaks for them.

The regions below are simply geographic signposts to make the directory easier to navigate. Florida LEGO® communities don’t always fit neatly inside regional boundaries, and individual groups may serve areas beyond the locations shown here.
A note about geography: These regions indicate where communities are generally based or meet. Members may travel throughout Florida and beyond for conventions, exhibitions, collaborative builds, and other LEGO® events.

No LEGO® Fan Community Near You?
Start One.
You don’t have to wait for a LEGO® User Group to appear in your area.
If you have a few local LEGO® fans who would like to build, meet, and share the hobby together, you already have the beginnings of a community.
RenLUG can share what we’ve learned about building a sustainable local LEGO® community, including:
- Bringing interested local builders together
- Organizing your first gatherings
- Creating a simple membership structure
- Planning meetings and social activities
- Starting collaborative builds
- Finding opportunities for public displays and exhibitions
- Connecting with libraries, schools, museums, festivals, and community organizations
- Developing a group identity and online presence
- Growing at a pace that works for your community
You don’t have to copy RenLUG’s structure. Your community should reflect the people and interests in your own area.
Our goal isn’t to replace, absorb, or control local LEGO® communities.
It’s to help more LEGO® fans find the community that’s right for them — and to help new communities grow where none exists.
Want to Start a Local LEGO® Group?
Already Have a LEGO® Group?
We’d love to connect.
Florida’s independent LEGO® communities can accomplish more when they know one another. RenLUG welcomes opportunities for LUG-to-LUG collaboration, including:
- Joint exhibitions
- Collaborative builds
- Multi-LUG social events
- Shared equipment or layouts
- Event support
- Workshops and educational programs
- Knowledge and resource sharing
- Connecting members who travel between regions
Collaboration doesn’t require groups to merge, share leadership, or give up their local identity.
Independent communities can build something bigger together.
Don’t See Your Group?
This directory is a community resource, not an official registry of Florida LEGO® User Groups.
If you operate or know of a local LEGO® community that should be included, let us know.
Please provide:
- Group name
- City or region served
- Website or social-media page
- Type of community, if applicable
- A contact method
- Any other information that would help people find you
We’ll do our best to keep the information current, but each group is responsible for its own membership, activities, and contact information.
