Cultural / Context information for the jury

Every year, newspapers in Saudi Arabia celebrate National Day by releasing a special edition that celebrates all the kingdom's key achievements, eminent personalities and visions of the future. It is a tradition of paying tribute that has been upheld by every Saudi newspaper for decades. That is why, on Saudi National Day 2020, LEGO decided to pay tribute in a way it knows best, by showcasing the potential of its bricks.

Please tell us about the social behaviour and / or cultural insights that inspired your campaign

Saudis are proud of their nation's achievements. For them, their glorious past is just as valuable as their ambitions for the future. Every year on 23rd September, news publications celebrate all that the kingdom is proud of by dedicating the entire paper to achievements, eminent personalities, visions of the future and national day festivities. Theming the entire newspaper around the kingdom's pride is their way of paying tribute. So LEGO decided to pay tribute by doing the same. Just in a way that is intrinsic to the brand.
