📕 About Glasgow Zine Fest:
Glasgow Zine Fest is an annual celebration of zines, community art and heritage.
At the centre of it is our zine fair, a market where makers from all over the country come to sell and swap their zines. Last year over 2500 people attended the zine fair across the two days that it was open.
This year’s festival will take place at the following times:
Saturday 23rd May, 11am-6pm
Sunday 24th May, 11am-6pm
This year’s festival will be held at The Briggait, 141 Bridgegate, Glasgow G1 5HZ
(attention: previous zine fair attendees, please note the venue change! GZF will not be held at Tramway this year).
If you would like the chance to take part in this year’s zine fair, please fill out the application form on our website or via the link in our bio! Deadline for Applications: Sunday 18th January 2026, 5pm
If you have any questions about the application form, or zine fest in general, please email festival@glasgowzinelibrary.com

✏️ Solidarity Funds, Pay-it-forward, and more:
As an organisation, we’re attempting to build a fairer zine fest for everyone. If your application is selected, you will have the option to contribute to a solidarity fund for tablers who are unable to pay for their own table. If you choose this option, you will be given the option to pay an additional £10 (or more, if you so choose) on top of your table fee, with this passed onto a tabler unable to pay.
