Abstract: A canvas shaft holder for an awning having a canvas shaft, on which an awning canvas can be wound. At least one shaft end piece is provided, which is inserted into the canvas shaft in an axial end region thereof, the shaft end piece being connected to the canvas shaft in a force-fitting manner. A pressing part, which is inserted axially into the canvas shaft, is movable relative to the shaft end piece and/or to the canvas shaft in the axial direction of the canvas shaft between a clamping position and a release position. In the clamping position, a radial pressing force is exerted on the shaft end piece. The canvas shaft holder has at least one clamping bar which is guided through the pressing part and the shaft end piece and via which the pressing part is movable from the release position into the clamping position.
