At The Entertainer, Lego Star Wars U-Wing Ships - usually retailing at £59.99 - are going free on Saturday.
Customers are invited to come in for the full "make and take" experience.
No other purchase is necessary, and the kits are handed being handed out first come first served - so don't hang around.
There are 120 participating stores, which you can check here.
Over at Smyths, Lego Star Wars mini Millennium Falcons are being given out on Saturday.
Fans can visit any of the more than 100 shops around the country to claim one.
And this mini kit is exclusive to this Smyths store event.
It can't be purchased anywhere - making the offer all the more exciting.
Neither of the chains are allowing customers to book a place, so be prepared to queue.
The Lego Store itself is also joining in with the celebrations - for the whole weekend.
Lego Star Wars available for free in latest Amazon Prime giveaway
Throughout Saturday and between midday and 2pm on Sunday, customers can pop in and build their own Grogu - also known as Baby Yoda.
All 19 official Lego Stores are participating, but again the kits are dished out on a first come first served basis.
Finally, Lego fans can sign up to get a free Lego Life Magazine.
The offer gets you the mag in the post four times a year, if your child is aged between 5 and 9.

The magazine includes Lego news, themed games and puzzles, character comics, posters and sneak peaks at future Lego products.
May 4 is Star Wars Day because it sounds similar to "may the force" (be with you).
Meanwhile, thousands of Brits on Universal Credit and other benefits can score discounted or even free entry to top UK attractions this Early May Bank Holiday.
Families feeling the pinch can still make the most of the long weekend with savings of up to £60 on big-ticket days out.
With some attractions offering tickets for just £1, and others completely free, it means you could enjoy up to three days out across the May 4-6 weekend for next to nothing.
We've rounded up the best deals here to help you plan your break without breaking the bank.

Three cool ways to keep kids entertained with ice cubes on hot summer days
Plus find out which supermarket has Birds Eye chicken burgers for less SUN SAVERS Three cool ways to keep kids entertained with ice cubes on hot summer days ON hot summer days, playing games using ice could be just the thing to keep kids chilled. There's lots of fun to be had with a pile of frozen cubes, and they hardly cost a thing. So for some icy fun, try these simple challenges . . . COOL FOR GROUPS: For a kids' party or if you've got a crowd over for the day, try an ice relay. Players pick up an ice cube with a spoon from one bowl then race to drop it in another, before running to let the next player go. The winning team is the one to transfer all their cubes and get back to the start first. Also, with a bit of preparation, you could set up a frozen bowling game. Freeze water in plastic water bottles to use as the bowling pins. Then, try to knock them down with a ball. FUN FOR ONE: Keep boredom at bay with some games kids can play on their own or with a friend. Give them a big bowl of ice cubes and a tray. Let them build a slippery tower on the tray and see how high they can make it until it collapses. For arty kids, get them to paint with coloured ice. Add food colouring to the water in an ice cube tray. Then, as it starts to freeze, add a lolly stick or toothpick to each cube to use as a handle. I save £2,500 every summer by planning kids' activities in JANUARY... here's how you can too Once they're frozen, tip the cubes on to a tray and use to paint on paper, watching as the colours melt and blend, making amazing patterns. MELTING MAGIC: Just the effect of ice melting can be magical to behold for little minds. Freeze small items in a tray of ice cubes then get your kids to excavate them as they melt. You could turn it into a nature trail, freezing herbs, flowers and leaves. Another idea is to freeze small toys so the little ones discover their favourites as the ice melts. Also fun is freezing little snacks — half grapes, blueberries and slices of apple can all be frozen in water. All prices on page correct at time of going to press.
