ALL ABOUT SUPER
SECONDS FESTIVAL
WHAT IS SUPER SECONDS FESTIVAL?
Super Seconds Festival is your opportunity to pick up an absolute bargain from independent makers from the UK and further afield! Lots of indie makers have seconds, samples and misprints that just didn't go quite right - normally these would be sold off at in person fairs at bargain prices, but Super Seconds Festival gives you a chance to buy from lots of makers all in one place over one weekend! Super Seconds Festival (formerly Super Seconds Saturday) is organised by Sophie and Abby.

WHEN IS SUPER SECONDS FESTIVAL?
The next Super Seconds Festival is due in 2025 and the date is to be confirmed. Sign up to our newsletter to be the first to hear (in early 2025) when the next date will be!
WHERE DID SUPER SECONDS COME FROM?
​
Sophie from Ink & Bear came up with the idea in September 2020 in the middle of lock down after printing a whole pile of t-shirts that went ever so slightly wrong! She launched the idea 3 weeks before the first Super Seconds event and thought she'd have 10 people joining in with her - by the first Super Seconds there were over 250 makers involved and it's continued to grow from there!
HOW DO I GRAB A BARGAIN?
​
Head to the Makers Line Up on this website from 2 weeks before the event to see who you'd like to buy from - make a note of who you'd like to shop with and be ready to buy from them at 10am on the day of the festival. The Makers Line Up will be ready to view 2 weeks before the big weekend!
​
You can also follow along with the hashtag #supersecondsfestival on Instagram closer to the time to see which makers are taking part. Click on the makers' posts and stories to find out more - it's as simple as that! They'll then direct you to their listings on their website or Etsy/a third party website.
