Trendz/showUP Netherlands 2026 will take place from August 30 to September 1, 2026, at Evenementenhal Gorinchem in the Netherlands. The professional trade event brings together the established Trendz and showUP concepts in a combined wholesale and inspiration platform for the home, flowers and gifts market. More than 500 brands are represented across product categories including home accessories, flowers, gifts, jewellery, kitchen and tableware, children’s products and stationery. The event focuses on new collections, design developments and products intended for independent retailers, concept stores and other professional buyers operating across the Benelux retail market.
The exhibition is designed for retailers, buyers, wholesalers, designers, agents, makers and other professionals involved in lifestyle and consumer products. Visitors can meet existing suppliers, identify emerging labels and compare seasonal collections from domestic and international brands within one sourcing environment. The broad product mix ranges from decorative home products and scented items to jewellery, tableware and gift concepts, allowing buyers to source complementary categories during a single visit. Sustainability and changing materials and colours also form part of the product and trend focus.
The 2026 programme is organised around three main themes: Trends 26/27, Future Retail and Sustainability. Expert sessions address retail innovation, positioning, social-media content and the changing relationship between physical stores, e-commerce and AI-powered search. Additional features include the Trendshop, Gift of the Year activities and opportunities for networking with exhibitors and fellow retail professionals. The combined Trendz/showUP format therefore connects product sourcing with practical retail knowledge and trend forecasting for the upcoming selling seasons.
