Barrie’s Fibre Spirit Festival

Barrie’s Fibre Spirit Festival is an exciting, new one-day event dedicated to yarn, fibre and all things related to knitting, crocheting, weaving, spinning, needle felting, and more – everything to satisfy your fibre desires!

Fibre Spirit is the first festival of its kind in Barrie, where over 50 local vendors from the fibre community will gather to showcase gorgeous fibres and yarns, dazzling beads, notions, and embellishments, exciting new kits, patterns and books, and more! There is sure to be something for everyone! We are so proud that Ontario has such an amazing, unique community of fibre producers, indie hand-dyers, local yarn shops, spinners, weavers, felters, and fibre farmers! We want to connect and introduce the public to the wonderful world of fibre found within the province!

Fibre Spirit’s vibrant marketplace will feature large and small businesses alike, with a focus on showcasing new and upcoming fibre artists. A mid-afternoon fashion walk will highlight some of our fabulous vendors’ creations, like knit kits, sweaters, accessories, project bags, and more!

The Fibre Spirit Festival will be held at the Barrie Curling Club on August 25th, 2018 from 10:00am – 4:30pm. Free parking is available on site. Admission is $5 in advance from Eventbrite and $6 cash at the door. Children under 12 are free when accompanied by an adult guest.
