Unlock A World of Furniture & Textile Tradeshows
A Guide to High-Profile Tradeshows Across North America, Europe & International Regions
Organized by Month for Strategic Travel Planning for the sophisticated Manufacturer, Specifier, or Adventurous at Heart
“Taking my years of expertise as a sales representative, meticulously orchestrating travels for various trade shows, I intimately understand the intricate dance of navigating the global design landscape. Having immersed myself in countless magazines, trade publications, and exhibitor websites, I realized the need for a comprehensive, all-in-one resource - a compass guiding professionals and enthusiasts through the dynamic world of furniture, textiles, and architectural products. As a strategic consultant, I present a meticulously curated list, a result of my journey from the frontline to the strategic helm- a guide design not just for travel planning but as a tool for manufacturers, specifiers, and the adventurous at heart. If you have been searching for a resource to keep at your fingertips, bookmark, and come back to time and again—this is that list.” - Lauren HM
