Block Party: Construction Play for Children's Day | Shivaji Nagar

by TROY

We are serious about making the best play kits in the world for your children to play, build, learn and imagine.

About the Workshop

This Children’s Day, Sabha Bengaluru transforms into a giant playground for building, making and imagination. Block Party, taking place on 13 and 14 November 2026, is a two-day celebration of open-ended construction play for children and families.

At the heart of the event is Troy Blocks, a collection of 11 simple geometric forms that can be transformed into anything children can imagine. The Flat Roof Building, will become a large-scale free-play space where children can build, experiment, collaborate, take things apart and start again. With no instructions, competition or models to follow, children are free to explore their creativity.

What to Expect

Troy Blocks Free Play: A large-scale construction play space where children can build, experiment, collaborate and create freely.
Playful Installations: Troy Block installations and unexpected architectural interventions across the Sabha campus.
Tinkernauts Activities: Hands-on making, tinkering and creative building activities for curious young minds.
School of Play: Messy and sensory play activities for children aged 18 months to 4 years, encouraging exploration through making and movement.
Marketplace and Food Stalls: A curated marketplace and food stalls for visitors to explore.
Children’s Performances: Performances by children as part of the celebration.
Evening Conversations: Discussions with architects and designers about creativity, architecture, play and how people imagine and build the world around them.

Designed for children, parents and curious adults, Block Party offers an opportunity to slow down, get hands-on and experience the joy of creating together. Families can spend an hour or the entire day exploring construction play, creativity and imagination.
