Kyoto Handmade Marche returns to Miyako Messe with more than 1,000 booths of jewelry, textiles, ceramics, illustrations, and all the charmingly niche items you didn’t know you needed.
What happens?
Each day features a different mix of makers, so you can wander through embroidered patches, beadwork, carved animals, handmade scents, tiny desserts in brooch form, and plenty of Kyoto-style craft flair.
Pick up gifts, chat with independent creators, and join in a hands-on workshop.
