Harrogate International Nursery Fair 2026 will take place from October 18 to 20, 2026, at the Harrogate Convention Centre in Harrogate, United Kingdom. The trade-only exhibition focuses on products for babies and young children and brings together manufacturers, suppliers, distributors, retailers and buyers working across the nursery and preschool market. Established more than 50 years ago, the event covers products intended for pregnancy, infancy and early childhood, with participation from UK companies as well as international brands and suppliers.
The exhibition includes pushchairs and other wheeled products, infant car seats, feeding and breastfeeding products, baby monitoring and safety systems, toiletries, nursery furniture, clothing, toys, gifts and other products for children from birth to around four years of age. The 2026 exhibitor list includes manufacturers and brands across several product categories, while dedicated areas such as the New Brands Zone provide space for newer companies entering the nursery market. The event is structured primarily around trade purchasing, product presentations and meetings between suppliers and retail buyers.
The 2026 programme also includes the Progressive Preschool Forum, with sessions addressing topics relevant to nursery and preschool retailers and suppliers. The Baby Products Industry Association is represented through its pavilion, while the Concept & Innovation Awards highlight product and design concepts from the sector. Alongside established manufacturers, the fair provides a setting for retailers to review upcoming product ranges and for suppliers to meet distributors and buyers from the UK and other markets.
