Handmade Fest
By Charlotte Stace
Handmade Festival Barcelona returns to Barcelona for a new edition. The event brings together artisans, creators, designers and makers from around the world to showcase a range of handmade goods. From textiles to ceramics, paper crafts and sustainable creations, it’s full of little treasures to take home.
One of the main highlights is the Japan Zone, which offers traditional Japanese crafts such as kintsugi, origami, sumi and furoshiki. Japanese crafting masters will also lead workshops, where you can pick up their ancient crafting techniques. Additionally, Handmade Kids provides a dedicated space for the little ones to engage in activities and workshops.
Beyond the crafts, Handmade hosts the usual army of food trucks, as well as live music and a chill-out area to relax in. Whether you’re an artist or crafts lover, it’s the perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in the handmade movement with like-minded people.
