WABS – Western Australia Brick Society
The longest running one is the WABS (Western Australia Brick Society) formally PALS (Perth Adult LEGO® Society)
Who they are:
We love our LEGO® and we want to show you some fantastic stuff we’ve been creating over here in Perth, Western Australia.
In late 2007, a small group of like-minded adult LEGO® enthusiasts met up Sunday mornings to create a train and town layout for the 2008 Model Train Show. We won Most Popular Exhibit and had a great time running the display. A few more people have joined the group since then, allowing us to build bigger and better displays filled with unique creations.

Find them on facebook as WA Brick Society – LEGO fan group
There are many LEGO® Groups on Facebook.
Most of them are closed groups as they have found in the past that they where being spammed a lot by non LEGO® posts, so they are now closed groups that you need to ask to join.
