What to expect at Maker Faire Luxembourg 2026 Two days of making, experimenting, discovering – and plenty of things you probably didn’t expect.
Featured Makers 2026
Maker's Labs
Maker’s Labs is a Luxembourg-based nonprofit inspiring young makers through hands-on learning in 3D printing, electronics, robotics, and AI. At our booth, visitors can explore a variety of projects built by our community, including custom 3D-printed creations, electronic prototypes, and interactive maker projects. We will also showcase upcoming developments such as an AI-powered desk robot and a DIY drone platform. Our goal is to spark curiosity, creativity, and innovation by demonstrating how accessible modern technologies can be for learners, hobbyists, and future inventors of all ages.
Jet Turbine Powered bicycle!
Ever looked at a bicycle or E-bike and thought "Yeah that's cool, but what if it could go faster and louder and consume a litre of fuel every 5 minutes". Of course you have, and so did I, and the answer I found lay in the Greg's Gizmo's Super Fantabulous Jet Bike-9000XL! This jet turbine powered commuter bicycle is capable of over 90km/h speed (though I wouldn't recommend it) and is fully throttle controlled and auto starting. The turbine generates 24kg of thrust at 118,000 RPM, so if you stood behind it it would feel like someone pushing a gym weight on your chest every second of the day. The Turbine demonstrates perfectly the core working principals of all modern jet engines, and roars just like a fighter jet!
OPEN FOOTWEAR - Shoes Made by YOU!
Open Footwear is open-source footwear you make yourself. Download the files, cut them at a FabLab, and assemble a pair that fits your feet, your style, and your life. Because the shoes are made locally — not shipped halfway around the world — repair is part of the design, not an afterthought. Customize them. Fix them. Wear them longer. Let’s make it sustainable.
LEAF & LOOM
LEAF & LOOM is a celebration of "slow art" and the wonders of nature, translated into sustainable, vegan textile art. Through the enchanting process of ecoprinting and natural dyeing, I transform natural fabrics like silk and cotton into unique, wearable artworks. The vibrant colors and intricate patterns are thoughtfully extracted directly from leaves, flowers, and everyday botanicals like avocado seeds, giving textiles a beautiful new life through circular design principles. Visitors can discover the magic of botanical dyeing through continuous live demonstrations and explore a curated selection of naturally upcycled pieces. Step into a world of "mindful making" a calming, experience designed to help you slow down, explore sustainable craftsmanship, and deeply reconnect with nature.
LYRC Capture the Flag!
Show off your strategic and coding talents by capturing the opponent's flag using our robots.
NFC_temp - passive thermometer for your keychain
NFC_temp is a passive open-source NFC thermometer based on an ATtiny microcontroller, a TMP117 temperature sensor, and the NXP ntag NFC IC. The device harvests part of the NFC field from a generic NFC reader for power and enables temperature measurements with up to 0.1 °C accuracy. The result is output by the NXP ntag as an URL and can be read using any smartphone. With a size of only 35 mm × 18 mm, the system design enables maintenance-free, location-independent, and accurate temperature measurements on your keychain without a dedicated battery. The entire hardware was created using freely available software (KiCAD, FreeCAD). Come to the booth for a live demo!
FIRST INCHEON 2026 - LUXEMBOURG, WORLD RUNNER-UP - MAKERSPACE MS20
Every year, the nonprofit organization MAKE IT organizes the national LYRC (Luxembourg Youth Robotics Challenge) competition, which selects the national teams that represent Luxembourg at the VEX and FIRST global robotics competitions. This year, the Luxembourg team selected for the FIRST world competition—a team from the MS20 makerspace at the Lycée VAUBAN in Luxembourg—finished as world runner-up for the first time ever, thanks to its alliance ! Come discover this incredible achievement, made possible this year in Seoul, South Korea, thanks to MAKE IT !
Freie Maker e.V. - Innovatiions that might not change the world
We will present some of the crazy stuff which happens in our makerspace, some parts just artistic, some parts interactive (aka games), and maybe even something useful.
