Previous events we have been involved with and past Zinefests
St Paul St Print FairThe AUT St Paul St gallery is hosting a two-day print fair that will celebrate all facets of printing and print culture in Auckland city.
We've been asked to curate a zine stall! We like to think of this as a sort of two day distro:
P O Box 106921
Auckland City Post Shop
Auckland 1143
For more information, feel free to email us at akzinefest@gmail.com
- We will promote and sell your zines for you on the day, at no cost to you (no commission will be taken).
- You will need to arrange a way for us to return any leftover zines to you (whether this is by you providing a S.A.S.E., a few dollars or stamps in your package you send to us. We may be forced to use any takings from selling your zines to pay for postage if you don't supply us this. If you live in Auckland, pick-up/drop-off can be arranged at our discretion).
- Please include your name, return address, price, inventory and any relevant promotional material (flyers, stickers, etc) when sending us your package.
- Any packages received later than 25th March may not make it into the Print Fair on time (we know this is late notice, but is the best we can do).

Cross Street Zine Library Party Tent
Chill out, shelter from the elements, and peruse some fine zines from the Cross Street Zine library's extensive collection during the Auckland Fringe Festival's opening celebrations. All of this excellent entertainment will be brought to you in the now infamous patchwork tent from December's First Thursdays.
The Cross Street Zine library is the surviving child of the now defunct Cross Street Studios. It is the largest browsable zine library in Auckland with over 600 individual titles, and travels to events such as the annual Auckland Zinefest, Cassette Super Markets and First Thursdays. The zine library has been made possible by kind donations from zine makers and lovers worldwide, and currently accepts zines of all makes, sizes and genres. It is currently looking for a permanent abode, but in the meantime would love to catch up with you at the Fringe in the Park.
