WHERE THE CLOTH HAS BEEN AND WHERE IT GOES

The route

Thirteen years, two continents and one cloth that grows at every stop. Below: the road behind it, the stops that are agreed, and the plan that is still only a plan.

Invite it to your city

Agreed stops

A community appears here once the project's coordinators and UAFest have both confirmed it. An invitation on its own does not put a city on this list.

Send an invitation and it goes to the festival team the same day. We answer with what hosting actually involves before anyone commits to anything.

How hosting works

The Americas plan, as it stands today

The project's team named these in August 2026 and called the list preliminary. Treat every line as an intention. Cities become stops on the list above, and only there.
