Maker Faire is the Greatest Show (& Tell) on Earth—a family-friendly showcase of invention, creativity, and resourcefulness. It’s a place where people show what they're making and share what they're learning. What do you make?
Upcoming Faires
Each year, over 100 independently organized Maker Faires occur around the world. Some host hundreds of international makers; others showcase a local community. At all, participants come to share, learn, and get inspired.

I want to celebrate makers. I want to flush them out of the communities and bring them together at events like Maker Faire so they can meet each other and see that they aren't alone, that they can learn from each other and, more importantly, begin to do things that they might not think they can do on their own.
