Celebrating
a repair culture

Our landfills are overflowing with items that could be repaired and reused. Through showcasing a variety of projects, initiatives, and solutions, we cultivate repair skills and knowledge sharing, fostering a culture of responsible consumption.

The Repair Festival is for Everyone!
Join us, learn to fix, and celebrate reducing waste and building community!
