Your Passport unlocks exclusive perks, discounts, and bonus activities at 10+ creative studios across your city. Think 20%+ off workshops, free add-ons like bonus crafts, first dibs on new workshops from our partners, and access to fun festival challenges + rewards.
Are workshops included in the Hobby Hop Passport price?
Workshops themselves aren’t included, but the Passport makes them more affordable and rewarding. You’ll get curated access to dozens of creative classes with savings and perks that make your Passport pay for itself after just one workshop.
How long is the Hobby Hop Passport valid?
The Passport is good for the entire festival period. Hop as much as you like during those months! We hope to bring it back bigger and better next year, with a 3 month festival period.
How many workshops do I need to attend to make my money back?
Just one! Most perks are worth $15+, so a single workshop already covers your Passport. The more you hop, the more you save.
What are the challenges and rewards?
The Passport comes with a few challenges to get you started, so all you need to do is attend workshops, check in, and complete fun creative tasks. Each workshop completed = a stamp closer to prizes like a free $90 workshop or other surprise perks. We hope this helps make the festival feel like a citywide creative game.
How do I use my Passport?
After purchase, you’ll get access to a digital Passport through the Circle app. On the app, we have a collection of workshops from our partner studios, with links to book and info on how to claim your perks/discounts. Bring it with you when you attend participating workshops as studios will apply your discount or perk when you book. Scan the QR code at each workshop to collect stamps and unlock rewards.
What kinds of workshops can I try?
Pottery and tufting to perfuming, cooking, terrariums, painting, and more, the Passport gives you a curated mix of creative studios across the city. New partners may be added during the festival, and Passport holders get first dibs.
Can I share my Passport with a friend?
Each Passport is tied to one person. But we highly recommend inviting a friend to grab their own Passport so you can explore together, and are figuring out a referral program to reward you for sharing the love.
How often will the Hobby Hop Festival happen?
We just wrapped up our very first Hobby Hop Festival 🎉 and we hope to bring it back bigger and better in the spring. After that, we`re exploring options for an evergreen experience, so you can keep exploring your city`s creative side all year round.
