Over two days, Zineophilia is taking over Left Bank Leeds to bring you Stapled, a celebration of the world of independent print. We are aiming to make a home for the unique, creative voices that might get overlooked in the current creative landscape. Whether this is in the world of comics or zines, our ethos remains the same; a place for everyone, no matter how distinct, niche, or downright weird your interests might be.

The event will be held on Sunday 25th and Monday 26th August across the bank holiday weekend. Both days run from 11am until 5pm, at the historic Left Bank Leeds. We will be packing the converted church with creatives from Yorkshire and beyond.

On our first day we will be hosting a comic convention focused on spotlighting the best people working in the scene right now. On the second we will be hosting a zine and print fair, moving away from the more traditional elements of the sequential narrative. Our aim is to represent every corner of the small press community and not be limited by genre, topic, or style.
