The "Allgäu Needlework Fair" in Oberstdorf is an annual event held in spring, establishing itself as a central meeting point for creative enthusiasts and interested parties. Featuring approximately 40 exhibitors, the fair offers a wide range of needlework techniques – from sewing, patchwork, knitting, and crocheting to embroidery – thus providing something suitable for every visitor.
A highlight of the fair is the second-hand market for needlework accessories, which allows visitors to offer their used items for sale. This initiative promotes sustainability and offers the chance to find unique bargains. The Oberstdorf Patchwork Group seizes the opportunity to present an impressive exhibition of various quilts and sewing works, serving as inspiration and highlighting the diversity of the craft.
The sewing café acts as a central meeting point where fair visitors can exchange ideas, learn new techniques, or simply enjoy a break. A play area for children enables parents to explore the fair in a relaxed manner.
Exhibitors, mostly from the southern federal states and neighboring countries, also offer a variety of workshops on different topics. These interactive courses provide the opportunity to learn new skills or deepen existing ones.
The fair takes place in the Oberstdorf Ice Sports Centre, which is not only easy to find due to good signage but also accessible due to its barrier-free design, including a large underground parking garage with direct hall access and an extensive free parking lot. These facilities make the fair visit convenient for people with strollers or in wheelchairs.
In summary, the "Allgäu Needlework Fair" offers a diverse platform for those interested in needlework, whether to discover new techniques, purchase special materials, or simply to exchange ideas with like-minded individuals. With its annual spring event, extensive range of exhibitors and workshops, as well as special highlights such as the second-hand market and the patchwork exhibition, the fair is an indispensable event for all needlework enthusiasts.
The Allgäu Needlework Fair will take place on 2 days from Saturday, 17. May to Sunday, 18. May 2025 in Oberstdorf.
