The Circular Days are back in 2024 at Green Pea, with the fashion segment organized in collaboration with the startup Atelier Riforma. This weekend event invites everyone to explore the world of circularity through products, workshops, experiences, labs, games, food, and plenty of creative ideas!

November 23-24, 2024: A Celebration of Circularity

During the time of year when consumerism tends to peak (sometimes unnecessarily), the Circular Days provide an alternative approach to shopping without the frenzy. This celebration of second chances offers an opportunity to have fun, meet new people, participate in workshops, exchange books and clothes, and shop more mindfully.

Every corner of Green Pea will highlight circularity—from clothing to furniture, from brunch menus to activities for children. It’s a chance to discover sustainable and circular products, meet the artisans behind them, try special dishes, join workshops, and participate in swap parties!

What’s happening

A wide variety of activities are planned (you can explore and book them here). Many focus on the textile industry, organized in collaboration with Atelier Riforma. Below are some highlights.
