Two Weeks Left to Enter Our Nerdvember Vacation Contest

The deadline for the Nerdvember 2025 Vacation contest is fast approaching, with only two weeks left to submit entries. The contest, which encourages participants to create vacation-themed photos and MOCs (My Own Creation), closes on January 4th.

There are two ways to win. The first is to take a photo of the red mascot, Nerdly, on vacation in an exciting or unexpected real-life setting. The second is to build a MOC of Vacation Nerdly, customizing the character to fit an ideal vacation theme. First-place photo entries will receive a LEGO set of their choosing (up to $100 USD), a Golden Nerdly trophy, and a BrickNerd swag box. Second and third-place winners will receive LEGO sets valued at up to $50 and $25, respectively. First-place MOC entries will receive a LEGO set of their choosing (up to $200 USD), a Golden Nerdly trophy, and a BrickNerd swag box. Second and third-place MOC winners will receive LEGO sets valued at up to $100 and $50, respectively.

Contest entries are judged on concept, quality and presentation, and "Nerdiness". Participants can find inspiration from past Nerdvember contests. Instructions for building Nerdly are available as a downloadable PDF.

With the contest deadline drawing near, now is the time to finalize your entries. Consider using a LEGO display case to showcase your winning creation.
