Welcome to Bergen’s biggest clothing swap event! Here you'll find good quality second hand clothes in all sizes and types, shoes and accessories. The swap café is opened with coffee and homemade cakes. Don't forget to drop by the repair café where we'll help you repair (or adjust) any clothes you brought with you or found at the swap.
When: March 15th
Where: Bergen Kjøtt (Skutevikstorget 1)
Tickets (50-100KR): clothingswapbergen.ticketco.events
How does it work?
Dive into your closet and collect a max. of 7 clothing items, shoes, bags/purses or jewelry. At the swap, you will receive points for each item, depending on its type and quality. Next, take your time to look through our well-stocked racks for some nice items and pay for them with the points you received. The clothes you brought will be made available for newly arriving swappers and you’ll leave with your newly swapped outfit! As we have our own stock, there are clothes available from the very beginning. Note: You can bring any points received at former events.
Repair cafe
Repair your own clothes at the repair cafe. Our experienced volunteers will help you make small repairs, like attaching a button, closing a hole, or replacing a zipper. The workshop is included in the entrance fee. The amount of repairs you can do depends on how busy it will be.

Hvordan funker det?
Dykk ned i skapet og samler maks. 7 klesplagg, sko, vesker eller smykker. Ved byttet får du poeng for hver vare, avhengig av type og kvalitet. Ta deg deretter tid til å se gjennom de velfylte stativene våre for å finne noe fint og betal for det med poengene du mottok. Klærne du leverte vil bli gjort tilgjengelig for nyankomne byttere, og du drar hjemme med det nye antrekket ditt! Ettersom vi har eget lager, vil det være klær tilgjengelig helt fra starten. Obs: Du kan bruke poeng du mottok ved tidligere arrangement.
Reparasjonskafé
Reparer dine egne klærne i reparasjonskafeen. Våre erfarne frivillige hjelper dere med å gjøre små reparasjoner, som å feste en knapp, tette et hull eller bytte ut en glidelås. Verkstedet er inkludert i billettpris. Hvor mange reparasjoner du kan gjøre avhenger av hvor travelt det vil være.

In our mission to promote slow fashion, Clothing Swap Bergen wants to create a community and environment where repair and handmade creation are in focus. The sewing club is a monthly social gathering where all participants work on their own projects. There is no instructor, but we help each other along the way. Sewing machines and basic materials are provided, as well as good music, tea, coffee and some light snacks.
All meetings are on Wednesdays, from 19.00-22.00 at Manufakturhuset. In fall 2023 there's two groups:
Group 1: August 16, September 13, October 11, November 15, December 13
Group 2: August 23, September 20, October 18, November 22, December 20
The sewing club is now full! Register here for a spot on the waiting list.
