And the current status is impressive: more than 600 suppliers from 33 countries are registered for MUNICH FABRIC START, including around 90 international denim suppliers for BLUEZONE. The visitors can expect safe and inspiring trade shows with fully booked halls at almost pre-pandemic level!

“We are overwhelmed: we will be able to offer more than 600 exhibitors and thus around 1,100 collections a physical platform at the upcoming MUNICH FABRIC START and BLUEZONE. This impressive current status and the enormous support from the industry is in this exceptional situation a milestone and anything but a matter of course. Despite the great planning uncertainties, we are highly motivated to offer the industry a safe and inspiring trade show at the end of January – to build on the success of our two shows that were already realised during the pandemic."

Frank Junker, Creative Director MUNICH FABRIC START

Safe show days thanks to a proven hygiene concept and the so called 2G+ rule 

The organisers are very aware of the great social responsibility and of course always place the health and safety of all participants at the top. At the moment, the so called 2G+ regulation is planned, whereby only vaccinated and recovered people with an additional valid Covid-19 test will have access to the exhibition grounds. The extensive hygiene concept, which has already been proven at the last trade shows, is regularly adapted to the dynamic requirements.

MUNICH FABRIC START says Hello EVERY.BODY

The trend theme for Spring.Summer 23 – EVERY.BODY – stands for a new feeling, even a new definition of individuality and community. In the search for optimism, a new balance and an individual self-image, our industry meets with a newly learned cosmopolitanism and tolerance.

There is a longing for personal exchange and the tactile experience of textiles – exactly what is missing without trade shows. In addition, it is about collecting new information and inspiration, without a screen or headphones.
