Kitely’s user community is celebrating History Month this August to celebrate history-inspired builds and encourage people to build more. It will also feature a number of events each week including live music and dance.

Visitors can pick up landmarks and a HUD — heads-up display — at the History Month Hub each week to help them visit the various historical builds around the grid during that week.

Each week focuses on different historic eras and the related historical areas, full list available here.

August 1-6: Big Bang to Greeks and Romans
