Come get inspired at Canada’s most popular textile festival.

Founded in 2012 by Amélie Blanchard, the festival was born out of her love for fiber following the start of her cashmere goat farm. This is how the Twist Festival was created, bringing together fiber enthusiasts and curious minds from all backgrounds – hobbyists, breeders, artisans – in one event. Since then, a tight-knit community has formed around the festival year after year.

TWIST is an annual event, an incursion into the world of textile fiber, for the general public, enthusiasts, fiber producers, fiber animal breeders, processors, artists, and artisans. TWIST is three days of festivities, with more than 130 vendors, around 40 workshops, kid’s activities, textile performances, conferences, and a local food fair.
