Postponement of FABRIC DAYS Spring.Summer 22

The ongoing situation demands the highest flexibility and versatility from our industry. As we all miss personal exchange with our industry partners MUNICH FABRIC START wants to offer a safe and inspiring physical platform as soon as possible. Based on current developments, the announced date for FABRIC DAYS in January no longer seems feasible. Which is why the upcoming edition of FABRIC DAYS has been postponed by five weeks...

With the goal to realise a physical event for the textile industry for the upcoming Spring.Summer 22 season, the team at Munich Fabric Start Exhibitions GmbH is undergoing plans for the second edition of FABRIC DAYS.

With this, the organisers are eager to offer a platform for those manufacturers and suppliers who can and want to present their collections in Munich. What has been successfully realised in September with FABRIC DAYS shall be repeated: that a trade fair is possible under the new conditions with Covid-19.

Based on current infection rates and the situation in Europe, the German government has announced an extended set of measures last week. Unfortunately, there are no signs yet of a steady decline in infection numbers, which decreases the chance that FABRIC DAYS would be approved in the first weeks of the new year. The time frame is too short to expect that conditions will improve as they did before our trade fair in September 2020. The risk of cancellation at short notice is too high, which would leave no room to take alternative action.



"If we look realistically at the next few weeks with the knowledge and experience gained over the past months, the date for FABRIC DAYS from 26 - 28 January 2021 is no longer justifiable for our exhibitors, visitors and for all contributors. Based on these facts, we feel obliged to postpone FABRIC DAYS by 5 weeks until 2 - 4 March 2021" says Sebastian Klinder, Managing Director MUNICH FABRIC START.

The first feedback from the exhibitors regarding the new date is understanding and positive. This underlines the very good response to FABRIC DAYS and the trust in the organisers. The need of the industry for a physical event in Munich is still high. Around 300 international suppliers are expected to present their novelties and material developments for Spring.Summer 22.
