Banff Share and Repair Fair

Join the Town of Banff and the Biosphere Institute of the Bow Valley on Sunday, October 26, 2025 from 10am-2pm at the Fenlands Recreation Centre for a fun, educational day promoting a circular economy in Canmore. After a highly successful pilot event last year, we look forward to continuing this journey as a community!

What is a Share and Repair Fair?

This is a FREE community event that promotes circular economy and waste reduction through free repair, share and reuse services, workshops, and presentations. We aim to feature 10-20 local businesses and organizations that contribute to reuse, repair, recycling, upcycling and sharing in Canmore and across the Bow Valley.

What is a circular economy?

Circular economy is based on the principles of designing out waste and pollution, keeping products and materials in use, and regenerating natural systems.

What will the day look like?

Free clothing swap, upcycled fashion show, hands-on workshops, on-site repairs, light snacks, refreshments, live music and more!

Local businesses, organizations and vendors will be providing on-site repairs, workshops and information.

Free Workshop Schedule: Limited spots available. Schedule and registration coming soon!
