Handicraft fair for knitting, crochet, embroidery, and natural fibers – at a historic wool address
The Nordwolle in Delmenhorst was once the largest wool combing mill in Europe. Today, the industrial monument houses apartments, businesses, and cultural venues – including com.media, a modern event space. The fact that a Wolle Festival is held here lends the event a special historical depth.
At the fair, selected exhibitors present high-quality yarns, natural fibers (wool, alpaca, silk, cotton, linen), tools for knitting and crochet projects, embroidery hoops, felting accessories, books with patterns, finished designs, and gift ideas for the handicraft community.
The Wolle Festival is more than just a sales fair: Workshops on knitting and crochet techniques, spinning demonstrations with a spinning wheel, felting courses, and tutorials for beginners make the weekend a place of learning.
A café within the event area invites visitors to take a break. Over coffee, cake, and a small snack, hobbyists and professionals can chat, exchange projects, and network.
com.media is accessible. Children under 14 have free admission – making the fair a worthwhile destination for families too. Parking is available on the Nordwolle premises.
Those who miss the spring edition can look forward to the second edition in 2026: On November 14th and 15th, the Wolle Festival Delmenhorst will again take place at com.media.
The Wolle Festival 2026 combines tradition and contemporary handicraft. The Nordwolle venue gives the festival a special atmosphere – where wool for the global market was once processed, today lovers of natural fibers gather.
With its mix of a sales fair, workshops, and a café, the festival is a worthwhile destination for all generations, from knitting beginners to experienced designers.
