Munich Fabric Start will welcome back exhibitors to its first edition post COVID-19 on September 1. The fair will be renamed ‘Fabric Days’. Having backed out on an earlier decision to host the exhibition in its original form, due to reasons related to COVID-19, show organizers plan to host a consolidated event that would feature around 300 companies.

Returning to its home at Munich’s MOC – despite registering earlier interest in the Messe Munchen exhibition grounds that could have provided more space – the show will feature 700 collections. The inspiring trend of the event will be ‘Hopetimism’ – which nods to the industry’s resurgence from the pandemic. Sebastian Klinder, Managing Director, Munich Fabric Start, said, by organizing Fabric Days, it aims to set an example and offer the industry a trade fair that will be the first event of its kind on this scale.
