Peace and Power through Paper and Pens
StationeryFest is an exciting, must-attend event for anyone that appreciates stationery, organisation, creativity and productivity.
In 2023, the first ever StationeryFest was a huge success, uniting people from across the UK and Europe. 800 people attended the first StationeryFest, PlannerFest and JournalFest! There were over 40 brands and independent businesses selling staionery, planning and journalling goodies.
In June 2024, nearly 1,500 visitors came to StationeryFest to purchase stationery goodies and gems from over 100 independent retailers and established brands from across the UK.
In July 2025, we moved to the Edge in Wigan and introduced the Friday Discovery Day, as well as the Saturday StationeryFest extravaganza, The event was a sell out on both days and there was an amazing mix of fabulous businesses large and small.
