10 years ago, the Salida Fiber Festival was “hatched” after a group of friends attended the Taos Wool Festival together. We thought “why can’t we have a fiber festival of our own?”; after all, Salida and the surrounding area are home to numerous Alpaca, Llama, Sheep, and Paco-Vicunas, and fiber enthusiasts are abundant.

Details

The Salida Fiber Festival, started in 2011 and conducted entirely by volunteers, has become one of the premier events in Central Colorado and one of the most diverse and well-attended fiber festivals in the West. The Salida Fiber Festival is held the first weekend after Labor Day.

Vendors

Featuring vendors focused on all aspects of textiles, including fiber-related activities and demonstrations, a make-and-take activity tent, a silent auction tent featuring a variety of goods donated by vendors and Salida businesses, and a tree-shaded beer garden offering local beer, wine, and distilled drinks.

Demos & Events

Every year the activity tent hosts demos, youth activities, and a variety of festival-related off-site surprises such as the annual Fiber Arts Exhibition, the annual Fiber Art Film, and many galleries and businesses host fiber-inspired events. Check-in at the info booth for details.

Silent Auction

Join us for a great selection of merchandise and gift cards from local merchants, beautiful fiber and fiber-related items donated by our 2021 vendor, sponsors, as well as other handcrafted fiber items. There is something for everyone at the silent auction!

Food & Drink 

In the shade of 100-year-old trees, the Beer Garden is a great place to stop for a moment, relax, show off your purchases and try a local libation. 

Activity Tent

Not just for children, Volunteers will be showing kids of all ages how to make yarn ropes, yarn pom-poms, and medicine-bottle beads. Come in and get creative!
