Repair Café Madrid
Every Saturday, Madrid hosts a unique gathering where not only are broken things repaired, but people also learn to appreciate every little thing in everyday life.
About this event
Repair Café Madrid is a unique weekly gathering where residents can not only repair broken household objects, but also rethink their role in everyday life. In an atmosphere of togetherness and support, with the help of craftspeople and simple tools, participants teach their appliances to “live” again.
The meeting takes place at Medialab Matadero, in Sala Terrarium, coordinated by TimeLab and Mediación-Investigación Escala Digital, where everyone can find resources and tools for repairs. Among the activities, there is even an electroshackling section!
The project’s aims are to support repair culture, strengthen ties between neighbours and rethink the role of everyday objects in today’s society.
