Proudly different yarn festival returns after year off
Friendly, welcoming festival features a marketplace, designer’s showcase, workshops, demonstrations, yarn swap and most importantly cake
Yarningham is the only Black led yarn festival
Yarningham, the proudly different yarn festival, returns by popular demand in July 2024, after a year-long hiatus. Featuring dyers, independent producers and designers from across the UK, Yarningham is a weekend-long celebration of all things yarn and stitch, where all are welcome.
The two-day festival will take place in the beautiful setting of the Uffculme Centre, a former home built by the Cadbury family, now owned and operated by the NHS. Uffculme Centre is located in the leafy suburb of Moseley, Birmingham and is easily accessible by cycling, walking, public transport and car.
The festival will feature an eclectic marketplace, Designer’s Showcase, and creative workshops. It also provides the chance to meet up with and make new yarn friends in the spacious marquee set in the tranquil gardens, or relax in the onsite café (from which all profits go directly to the NHS).
Yarningham Festival 2024 will also feature demonstrations from local guilds and groups such as Birmingham & District Guild of Weavers, Spinners and Dyers, a yarn swap to rehome unwanted skeins and most importantly, delicious homemade cake.
Advance tickets will cost £9.50 and will go on sale on 12th April 2024
