The BFM has moved the BFM Fabric Show London to a new venue, allowing it to confirm the event’s dates.
The show has moved from Chelsea FC’s Stamford Bridge stadium to the ILEC Conference Centre, near Earls Court, to offer increased capacity and space.
It will take place from 8-9 March.
‘The BFM Fabric Show offers an unrivalled opportunity to see high-end fabrics from some of the best mills, weavers and suppliers in Europe,’ says Sean Holt, BFM md.
‘We are delighted to be attracting an international audience, and to be able to offer certainty with the date.’ When the exhibition was held at Stamford Bridge, dates could not be finalised until the club’s European fixtures were confirmed.
‘With the industry pushing for an opportunity to network and move business forward, we took the decision to press forward with plans to invigorate the event, after the challenges of the last few years due to Covid.
‘The BFM Fabric Show London has previously operated at capacity, so the extra space the ILEC Conference Centre offers has enabled us to include more exhibitors this year, so we can expand the scope of products on display and make the show even more compelling for buyers to visit.’
Pre-booking will be a requirement of attendance. Visitors will be given a lengthy time slot in order to allow ample time to visit as many suppliers as they wish, while some suppliers may operate their own time slot system within the event.
