We are delighted to be bringing our Repair Café back to Stoneybatter Festival this June.
Tog Hackerspace will be joining the 10th Stoneybatter Festival with a community Repair Café, giving people a chance to bring along broken household items and work with our volunteers to see if they can be fixed.
Do you have broken items at home, small appliances, toys, electronics, household bits and pieces, or something that just needs a bit of care?
No need to throw them away just yet. Bring them along, and our volunteer fixers will do their best to help. We will have tools, materials, and a team of people who enjoy opening things up, figuring out what went wrong, and sharing repair skills along the way.

What is a Repair Café?
A Repair Café is a community event where people bring broken items and work with skilled volunteers to try to repair them. It is about keeping useful things out of landfill, saving money, learning practical skills, and having a bit of fun along the way.
At a Repair Café, you can:
- Learn how things work
- Pick up practical repair tips
- Meet people interested in sustainability and making
- Give your broken items a second chance
Stoneybatter Festival is a brilliant celebration of local community, culture, creativity, food, music, and sustainability. We are very happy to be part of it again and to bring some repair energy to the weekend.
So dig out those broken treasures and join us in Stoneybatter on Saturday, 20 June. Let’s see what we can fix together.
