# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Wasteworlds
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 01 Oct, 2025 at 12:00 am – Sun, 05 Oct, 2025 at 04:00 am
- **Event Description**: ?  The year is 2125. Clothing waste has taken over the world. There’s nothing left to do but cut, rip, pin, stitch, and strut our way out of it. We need YOU to save the planet—one catwalk at a time.

Welcome to Wasteworlds—a large-scale interactive installation built by Fast Fashun artists in collaboration with local legends Snuff Puppets.

Throughout the week, join us for kids’ workshops where little designers and their grown-ups can explore the Wasteworlds sculpture, transform textile trash into fabulous outfits, and hit the runway in style. Expect chaos, creativity, and a whole lot of fun.

Then, on Saturday, we attempt the impossible: a non-stop runway show. For six hours straight, the catwalk is open to anyone and everyone. No sewing skills required—if you can use a safety pin, you’re halfway there. Make a look, take a turn on the runway, or simply come to watch the world transform, one outfit at a time.
