2013 – 1st edition

3 - 6 october 2013
Palazzo dei Congressi

The first edition of Maker Faire Rome was held at the Palazzo dei Congressi in EUR from 3 to 6 October 2013.

At its debut, the event unleashed the creative energy of an enthusiastic and diverse audience from across Europe: over 35,000 attendees, 250 projects from more than 25 countries, 500 moments of exchange and discovery through talks, workshops, and performances. Among the most memorable creations: the world’s first home fully independent from energy grids, the only foldable 3D printer, the first digital glasses capable of recording everything you see in video format, the first eco-sustainable 3D-printed superbike, mind-controlled robots, and a dress that changes color and pattern according to the wearer’s mood.

A debut that proved innovation doesn’t belong to a select few: anyone with the courage to imagine can become its protagonist.
For Maker Faire Rome, this is only the beginning of the journey.
