About this Event

UPCYCLE YOUR BRAND. LAUNCH YOUR CAREER.


Stop DIY-ing on your bedroom floor. THE UPCYCLING INCUBATOR is the link-up for the next wave of designers and makers. You’ve got the ideas—we’ve got the gear. This is a raw, high-energy maker space in the heart of Aston. We aren't here to hold your hand through a workshop; we’re providing the infrastructure for you to execute your vision.
THE VIBE
This isn’t a classroom. It’s a creative takeover. Arrive, catch a vibe with our live DJ, grab a drink, and network with other designers before locking into your project.


THE SETUP
We’ve curated the essential tools to help you customise and finish your pieces:
• The Workshop: Straight-stitch sewing machine, dress forms, and button press.
• The Details: Bedazzling station, stencils, fabric pens, distressing tools, hand sewing essentials, assorted fabrics & scrap materials and so much more.


• The Content: A professional Photo Studio setup.


THE DROP
The best part? You’re already in the perfect setting. Once your piece is finished, step onto the backdrop and bag your e-comm shots or BTS content immediately. Walk in with a garment; walk out with a product and the visuals to sell it - flip that fit.
