PERFORMANCE DAYS ads

New this October. We're introducing six new special areas to the PERFORMANCE DAYS floor: The Sustainability Exchange, Garment Tech Forum, Breakout Stage, Digital Design Journey, GORE-TEX® Brand Bar and Cellulose Forum. And of course, all our established areas are still there, the new ones simply add to them. Six new reasons to explore beyond the stands. Munich, October 13–14, 2026

Five fabrics. Five 3D concepts. One journey. We built the Digital Design Journey in partnership with CLO Virtual Fashion and Vizoo GmbH for the entrance area. The CLO Creator Collective turned five exhibitor fabrics into full 3D garment concepts. Live demos cover virtual sampling and sourcing workflows throughout the fair. Sourcing decisions start earlier when the fabric already speaks for itself. Check it out yourself this October in Munich! October 13 - 14! See you!

Bigger than ever: PERFORMANCE DAYS expands to three exhibition halls. On October 13–14, 2026, PERFORMANCE DAYS will host its largest edition in history at Messe München, covering approximately 27,500 m² of exhibition space and welcoming more than 590 exhibitors from around the world. Driven by record demand and a growing international community, the event continues to strengthen its position as the leading sourcing and innovation platform for the functional textile industry. Visitors can look forward to new special areas, expanded theme worlds, and the Focus Topic: "Biobased Materials – From Fiber to Fabric," highlighting the latest bio-based innovations across the textile value chain. More space. More innovation. More opportunities to connect. Join us in Munich and experience the future of functional textiles.

The Munich exhibitor list is final. 599 exhibitors will meet the community in Munich on October 13-14, 2026, across three halls in Munich. Fabric producers, accessories specialists, garment makers and footwear suppliers, all in one curated place. The full list is online and can be filtered by category, function, certification and production country. Time to plan who to meet before the doors open. #PERFORMANCEDAYS #PerformanceTextiles #TextileSourcing #FunctionalFabrics
