BLZF is an all-ages pop-up zine market expanding zine culture in Long Beach and beyond. Artists submit their work, our team handles sales, and all proceeds (minus credit card fees) go directly to the makers—no tabling required.
Alongside the market, we host social events that connect creators and publish an arts magazine spotlighting independent voices. BLZF celebrates handmade, self-published work that uplifts diverse communities and DIY culture. We do not accept work that promotes hate or discrimination.

BLZF happens outdoors, where hundreds of zine titles are available to browse and hundreds of guests gather throughout the day. Prices are capped for accessibility, and all proceeds (minus credit card fees) go back to the artists. This is a volunteer-run labor of love.
