Congratulations on joining the Global Network of Maker Faires!

We appreciate the work that has gone into your application and the preparations leading up to it, and are thrilled to have you and your team as part of the Maker Faire community.  Maker Faire Producers are working all over the world—in 48 countries at last count—doing what you are about to do:  Organize your community and produce a fantastic, fun event showcasing the maker ingenuity in your region.

This website provides you with a “guide rail” through your production timeline and your event license cycle.  You can also download a copy of our Maker Faire Playbook (which covers much, but not all of the information here) to share with your team.

Some ideas on getting started in the world of Maker Faire Resources:

  • Get to know our Team — go to the Contact page and scroll down.  If you haven’t already put face to name, here is a way to learn more about who is doing what at Maker Faire HQ.
  • Bookmark this website.  Get acquainted with the tools and resources here, and make sure it’s easy to get back so that you have the answers when you need them.
  • Populate your profile on Mobilize, our Global Producer Network communication tool. If we don’t have an answer for you, someone in the amazing Maker Faire producer community likely will!
  • Memorize this email:  makerfaire@make.co.  This is the fastest way to reach us.

Again, thanks in advance for your hard work ahead.  Maker Faire is a fantastic experience and a worldwide community. Welcome!
