Glasgow Zine Fest is a yearly celebration of zine culture, featuring events about art, community, and heritage.

The team are currently planning Glasgow Zine Fest 2025! Stay tuned for updates.

What does Glasgow Zine Fest involve?

As well as providing all the good vibes that you’d hope to find at a festival that celebrates DIY culture and creativity, Glasgow Zine Fest is founded around two major components:

Events!

We programme a full weekend of events that are affordable and accessible. We welcome internationally-renowned speakers an workshop leaders to deliver everything from performances to mural-making, to poetry writing, to kids arts and crafts, and much MORE!

Zine Fair!

Each year, we hold a massive zine fair that welcomes over 40 zine-makers. For the whole weekend, zine-makers, small presses, artists and more showcase their wares, hang out with each other, and generally have a lovely time!
