For the past 6 years, Brickfilm Day event has been an annual non-competitive celebration of the brickfilming community, where animators come together to each release a brickfilm, or brickfilming related video, on the same day.
Each video is compiled into an official event playlist upon their release, which is then promoted across Brickfilm Day's online platforms and social media pages (Instagram, Twitter and Discord server). Official Rules post on Google Docs.
This year’s Brickfilm Day will be hosted on May 11,2024.
