Europe’s Largest Thrift Festival

RDS, Sunday 1st November

Clothes Cycle is returning to Dublin this November following a sold-out event earlier this year, which reached capacity three weeks in advance.

This time, we’re going bigger, taking over two halls at the RDS and increasing capacity by 50%, with 150+ sellers and thousands of shoppers expected for a full day of second-hand fashion, music, food and entertainment.

Across 35,000+ sq ft, visitors will find everything from luxury archive and unique vintage pieces to preloved wardrobes and €2 bargain finds.

There’s also plenty happening beyond the shopping, including:

✨ 150+ vintage and independent sellers across two halls

♻️ A free all-day clothes swap – bring up to five items and swap them for something new

🎶 DJs and live music throughout the day

🧵 A free alterations station

💎 Permanent jewellery, tooth gems and tattoo pop-ups

🍔 Street food, a fully stocked bar and chill-out areas

🛍️ Thousands of curated vintage rails

🎁 Giveaways, freebies and plenty more throughout the day

It’s designed as a full day out rather than just a shopping market, with something to do whether you’re there to hunt for a bargain, find a one-off piece or simply spend the day with friends.
