More than 300 alpacas will compete in the combined Great Midwest Alpaca Festival (GMAF) and the Wisconsin Alpaca & Fiber Fest (WisAFF). With a successful first year, the two halter shows and walking fleece show return this spring to Madison’s Alliant Energy Center for a fun and competitive two-show weekend. ?

A collaboration between the Great Lakes Alpaca Association and The Great Midwest Alpaca Festival, the weekend offers something for everyone. There will be fiber arts contests, fiber classes, and seminars for those interested in learning more about alpacas. More than 50 vendors will offer yarn, roving, fiber equipment, and alpaca-themed items for sale as well as soaps, baskets and other hand-crafted items. The weekend is free and open to the public.
