Messe Frankfurt has announced that the Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics and Yarn Expo will be held along with Intertextile Shenzhen Apparel Fabrics and the debut Yarn Expo Shenzhen, from July 15-17, 2020. Exhibitors of Intertextile Shanghai Home Textiles – Spring Edition can partake in the Autumn Edition, to be held from August 24-26, 2020.
2020 marks the first edition of the newly rebranded Intertextile Shenzhen Apparel Fabrics (formerly Intertextile Pavilion Shenzhen), as well as the debut edition of Yarn Expo in Shenzhen. The fairs will take place in the brand-new Shenzhen World Exhibition and Convention Centre, according to a press release by Messe Frankfurt.
The Intertextile Shenzhen Apparel Fabrics will take place from July 15-17, 2020, with an estimated 2,000+ exhibitors expected to join a space of 60,000 square metres. In addition to being held with the first Shenzhen edition of Yarn Expo, CHIC and PH Value will also take place concurrently.
The Intertextile Shanghai Apparel Fabrics – Autumn Edition and Yarn Expo Autumn editions will take place from September 23-25, 2020, at the National Exhibition and Convention Centre in Shanghai. The fairs will be held concurrently with CHIC and PH Value. Intertextile Shanghai Home Textiles – Autumn Edition is Asia’s leading international business platform for the home and contract textiles sector.
“Since the announcement of the postponement, it was always our intention to hold the Shanghai editions of each fair this year. However, it is with regret that this is no longer logistically possible due to the worldwide spread of the virus. Given the importance of these fairs to the global textile sector, and our desire to support the industry’s efforts to return to normal as quickly as possible, we will now offer a platform for our exhibitors to present their spring/summer 2021, as well as autumn/winter 2021-22, collections at Intertextile Shenzhen instead,” Wendy Wen, senior general manager of Messe Frankfurt said.
