Stitch Fest is celebrating ten years
Colour, texture & a little imagination

Crochet news desk · Checked 24 October 2026

A date for the craft calendar

Stitch Fest's official site lists its tenth-anniversary show at Newton Abbot Racecourse on 31 October and 1 November 2026. Tickets and workshops are listed as live. If you love seeing different yarns and techniques together, the exhibitor and workshop lists are worth a look.

Plan with the current information

Check the organiser's ticket, access and workshop details before travelling; a listing is not a promise that a particular session still has spaces. Younger visitors should make travel plans with a parent or carer. This story is a preview, not a report from a visit.

A little inspiration mission

If you go to a craft show, pick one thing to learn rather than feeling you need to buy everything. You could compare two fibres, ask about a technique or note down a colour combination. A tiny notebook can be just as useful as a shopping bag.
