FIRST® LEGO® League Finals

Published: Mon 24 Feb 2020

FIRST® LEGO® League strives to inspire future engineers by getting young people excited about STEM! We have three finals taking place across the UK and Ireland.

Our first final is for England and Wales, and it took place in Bristol, at the University of West England, on Saturday 22 February.

FIRST® LEGO® League sets out to encourages young people to show an interest in real-world themes and develop key skills that are crucial for their future careers.

The 2019-20 season theme is CITY SHAPER. This focuses on architecture and the spaces we live in.

The competition has three parts to it. The teams are tasked with building a robot to take part in a series of missions. They also have a research project linked to the annual theme in which they have to identify a problem and present a solution. Throughout the competition, the competing teams must demonstration the FIRST® LEGO® League Core Values. These are:

  • Inclusion
  • Discovery
  • Teamwork
  • Innovation
  • Impact
  • Fun

We have three FIRST® LEGO® League Finals taking place:

  • England and Wales Final – Bristol, Saturday 22 February
  • Scotland Final – Perth, Saturday 29 February
  • All-Ireland Final – Dublin, Saturday 7 March
