Avondale Estates Tiny House Festival

MicroLife Institute is thrilled to bring back our annual Tiny House Festival this fall! Join us in exploring and championing well-designed micro spaces, innovative housing techniques, and all things housing!

This year's festival, held in Avondale Estates, will feature a number of tiny houses available to tour and get a firsthand feel for what living in 250 square feet is like. Stop by our main stage to listen to keynote speakers, all professionals and innovators in the housing world. Peruse our vendor tents to learn about minimalism, downsizing, sustainability, home care, innovative housing solutions, and more. Finally enjoy discounts and specials at local Avondale Estates restaurants, coffee shops, and breweries as a patron of the festival. We can't wait to see you there!

Please plan to purchase tickets online to facilitate check in at the festival. Single day tickets purchased at the door of the event will be $20 via Venmo (@MicroLife), Cash App (@TheMicroLife) or cash (exact change only).
