What if buying a ticket, shopping handmade goods,
and bringing home art could all happen in one place — even at your local FamilyMart?

3 Major Channels Fully Activated —
“Tickets × Marketplace × Cloud Printing” Redefine the Original Lifestyle Experience

This year, POPUPASIA® 2025 Asian Handmade & Lifestyle Fair proudly announces its first-ever full collaboration with Family Mart, integrating the brand’s three major platforms — FamiTicket, FamiMarket, and FamiPrint — to connect creators and consumers in a seamless journey from buying tickets to discovering handmade works and even printing creative content on demand.

The collaboration embodies this year’s curatorial theme, “Authentic|Real・Original,” celebrating creativity that is deeply rooted in daily life.

🎟 FamiTicket —
“Step into a convenience store, step into Asia’s creative scene.”

Tickets for POPUPASIA® 2025 are now officially available on FamilyMart’s FamiTicket system. Visitors can easily purchase entry tickets at more than 4,400 FamilyMart locations across Taiwan, making creative experiences more accessible than ever.

This year’s ticket lineup includes early bird tickets, duo passes, and limited-edition collector tickets. Visitors can also print “Creator-Exclusive Collector Postcards” through FamilyMart’s cloud printing machines.

This marks the second collaboration between POPUPASIA® and FamiTicket, continuing to bring the world of handmade creativity closer to everyday life — right from the convenience store counter.

🛍 FamiMarket —
“Bringing creators’ works into every moment of daily life.”

Through FamiMarket, POPUPASIA® opens the “POPUPASIA Select Zone”, featuring specially curated handmade products from creators across Taiwan, Japan, and Thailand — including natural fragrances, textile crafts, wooden homeware, stationery, and illustration goods.

This initiative marks POPUPASIA’s first step into retail e-commerce, extending the exposure of exhibition brands for up to three months after the fair and establishing a sustainable model that combines “Exhibition × Channel × Long-Term Sales.”

Featured brand Wei Weave 微微福 shared that the collaboration brought a significant boost in sales and shipping support,
proving especially valuable for small independent creators.
POPUPASIA® hopes to inspire more artists to embrace new sales channels through this success story.

Wei Weave 微微福 — “A Gentle Touch of Happiness”

Every piece of jewelry from Wei Weave is crafted to bring a small spark of happiness to everyday life.
Using resilient colored copper wire, the brand weaves each design entirely by hand,
transforming metal into soft, flowing textures that balance simplicity and elegance.
From minimal daily wear to statement pieces, Wei Weave creates accessories that blend seamlessly with personal style —
reminding us that joy can be found in the smallest details.

“We hope our tiny handmade pieces can become small joys in life.”

Gnocchi — “Cute Is a Way of Living”

Born from the belief that life should be a little softer, Gnocchi was created around one simple idea: “Relax and take it easy.”
Inspired by the shape of an Italian dumpling, the brand’s white, doughy mascot symbolizes freedom, optimism, and humor —
a reminder to stay cute and kind, even on difficult days.

All Gnocchi products are original designs developed by the in-house team,
ranging from the beloved Gnocchi Dough Dog plush to a variety of creative collaborations that combine artistry with function.
Gnocchi’s illustrations and characters are instantly recognizable for their gentle charm and stylish simplicity,
bridging the worlds of art, design, and emotion.

“Every smile counts — cuteness is a choice.”

🖨 FamiPrint —
“Bring creativity home — let inspiration be everywhere.”

During the exhibition, FamilyMart’s FamiPrint machines will feature a special “POPUPASIA® Creator Authorized Zone.”
Visitors can print postcards, planner stickers, and calendar templates designed by Asian illustrators — transforming digital creativity into tangible souvenirs.

This initiative not only extends the reach of art through digital technology but also opens a new licensing revenue channel for independent creators.
