European Textile Academy – Bolzano/Bozen

Dear friends,

the Covid-19 Pandemic continues to give no respite. To our enormous regret, we are forced to cancel the Festival scheduled from 14th to 16th May and postpone the Festival at the edition Autumn/Winter 2021.

International Festival of Textile Crafts, Textile Art and Design, 15 – 17 October 2021, Bolzano/Bozen

In occasion of the Festival Textile Manufactur, 4th edition, a new renowned location has been found in the historical centre of Bolzano: the Mareccio Castle. An ancient mansion is going to be the proper frame for a unique exhibition of top-rated products created in local and international textile workshops and factories.
It is one of our main goals at the European Textile Academy to promote international cooperation in the textile production field. We believe our Festival represents a valuable chance to get to know, share and exchange the quality, the creativity and the design from North and South Europe. Traditional techniques will be displayed next to the most up-to-date ones.
Visitors too will get a special opportunity to closely see and appreciate top-level handiwork or workshop creations, fabrics, unusual textile design and eco-friendly oriented manufacturing.
A much esteemed tourist attraction, Bolzano makes available an international clientele and an increasing number of visitors each year. The trend is set thanks to a high-quality offer and efficient infrastructure. All those taking part to the Festival as exhibitors will enjoy a double opportunity, to let new customers welcome their creations and get to know others’ selected production, in a profitable mutual exchange of creativity and know-how.
