About this Event
Welcome to < The Swap Club > Glasgow!
“There are enough items of clothing on the planet right now to dress the next six generations of the human race.” Vanish/British Fashion Council - Generation ReWear
If responsible consumption and waste reduction is your thing then this is for you.
We’re constantly cajoled into a cycle of overconsumption that we can’t sustain. However, what we choose to put on each day is a chance to communicate a strong statement and inspire those around you. As a small community, we can’t solve overconsumption and exploitation but we can exercise our power of choice.
How it works
Bring a maximum of 5 items of clothing, footwear or accessories freshly cleaned and ready to go on the rails. We are an inclusive event, ideal for ages 16 -100! There is no age or size limit on sustainable style so expect sizes from 6-24.
We operate a point system. This is a community-driven swap where we accept items from high street up to high end. All items must be clean and in good condition with no holes, stains, rips, broken zips, or scuffs. Any points not claimed can be carried over to our next swap event happening in January.
Items not permitted
Swimwear, underwear, nightwear, earrings, electrical items, furniture, or sharp objects.
What’s included in my ticket?
> A soft drink on arrival (or upgrade your ticket to Prosecco)
> Live DJ as you swap
> The chance to refresh your wardrobe
> Access to our free textile repair and alterations station!
Please note: We stagger entry to avoid overcrowding and reduce your waiting time when checking in. Please arrive at the time stated on your ticket - thank you!
We want our events to be inclusive. If the ticket cost will be a barrier to you attending, please get in touch.
Your style doesn’t need to be a disposable microtrend. Our aim is to swap behaviours, knowledge, and clothes. We’re so looking forward to seeing you!
