Planning is already well underway for the 2026 Kentucky Sheep and Fiber Festival, and the committee is excited to begin preparations for what will be the 16th annual festival at Masterson Station Park in Lexington.
Behind the scenes, our hardworking committee is busy scheduling engaging workshops, coordinating returning favorites, and dreaming up new ways to make this year’s festival a memorable experience for fiber enthusiasts of all kinds. From hands-on learning opportunities to the vibrant vendor marketplace and livestock exhibits, there is so much to look forward to in 2026!

One of the highlights of the Kentucky Sheep and Fiber Festival is our incredible community of vendors. If you’re a fiber artist, fiber producer, or small business offering yarn, fiber, tools, finished goods, or related products, vendor applications are currently open and will remain open until February 1. We invite both returning and new vendors to apply and be part of this long-running Kentucky tradition.
As plans continue to take shape, we’ll be sharing updates about workshops, vendors, and festival details in the coming weeks. Be sure to follow along on our website www.kentuckysheepandfiber.com
and mark your calendar—spring will be here before we know it, and we can’t wait to welcome you back to Masterson Station Park for another unforgettable Kentucky Sheep and Fiber Festival.
Stay tuned—exciting things are coming!
