Test your creativity and skills by joining this year’s 24 Hour Zinemaking Challenge!
Join the AZF team for a fun yet strangely challenging quest where you’ll create a zine inspired by the randomly selected zine topic and genre within just 24hours! That means planning the content, creating the work and binding the zine!
This challenge is 100% free! All you’ve got to do is register to reserve your spot!
To participate, please read the info below and register with this form.

HOW IT WORKS:
1. ZINE GENRES & TOPICS DRAWN
The challenge will be explained and then zine genres and topics will be drawn before the challenge starts.
2. CHALLENGE STARTS @ 3PM
The challenge kicks off at the library and online. Zine planning and making begins using the genre and topic you drew.
3. THE MAKING IS ON!
If you're at the library, materials and a workspace will be provided for zinemaking until it closes at 5pm. Feel free to take your zine home with you to continue working on them after this time.
If you're participating online, you can keep in touch via Discord in the challenge chat to get feedback or ideas from others.
On Sunday, the zinemaking space will be open from 10:30am until the end of the challenge at 3pm.
3. FINISHING THE CHALLENGE
After 24 hours, the challenge ends at 3pm, where all zines must be submitted.
You can submit your zine by dropping it off to the Auckland Zinefest team at the library, or by sending us a digital scan/copy of your zine via email.
All zines that make it to the finish line will be entered into Auckland Zinefest's Best of the Fest competition where one will win 'Best 24 Hour Zine'! The winner will be announced at the Zinefest closing party and receive a special prize.
