“Greatest Show (and Tell) on Earth” (Maker Faire slogan)

Maker Faire began in 2006 by Make magazine to “celebrate arts, crafts, engineering, science projects and the Do-It-Yourself (DIY) mindset.” There are annual events on the east coast (New York City) and the west coast (California).
 
“The Greatest Show (and Tell) on Earth” has been a Maker Faire slogan since 2012. It borrows from the famous slogan of Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus—“The Greatest Show on Earth.”

Maker Faire—A Bit of History
Maker Faire is the Greatest Show (and Tell) on Earth—a family-friendly festival of invention, creativity and resourcefulness, and a celebration of the Maker movement.
Part science fair, part county fair, and part something entirely new, Maker Faire is an all-ages gathering of tech enthusiasts, crafters, educators, tinkerers, hobbyists, engineers, science clubs, authors, artists, students, and commercial exhibitors. All of these “makers” come to Maker Faire to show what they have made and to share what they have learned.
 
The launch of Maker Faire in the Bay Area in 2006 demonstrated the popularity of making and interest among legions of aspiring makers to participate in hands-on activities and learn new skills at the event. A record 195,000 people attended the two flagship Maker Faires in the Bay Area and New York in 2013, with 44% of attendees first timers at the Bay Area event, and 61% in New York.
