On with the show Trade show updates from home and abroad INDX unveils strategic 2027 trade show calendar INDX Shows, the UK’s ultimate portfolio of industry-specific trade shows, has announced its highly anticipated schedule for 2027. Hosted at Cranmore Park Exhibition Centre in Solihull, the 2027 calendar continues the brand’s mission to provide a business-focused, buyer-centric environment for independent retail. Owned and curated by Associated Independent Stores (AIS), the UK’s leading buying group for fashion, home, and leisure, the INDX brand has become famous for its unique, ‘by buyers for buyers’ ethos, and the 2027 line-up will once again feature a diverse selection of business-first trade shows. “As we look ahead to 2027, our focus remains on delivering a curated edit of the best brands in a professional, friendly, and productive environment,” said Jane Bartlett, Director of Events at AIS and Cranmore Park. “By announcing our dates early, we allow our community of independent retailers and exhibitors the clarity they need to plan their peak buying seasons with confidence.” KEY HIGHLIGHTS FOR 2027: • A unified buying experience: The 2027 schedule continues to align complementary shows (such as National Kidswear and Kids Footwear) to maximise efficiency for multi-category buyers. • The INDX difference: Every 2027 show will maintain the hallmark visitor benefits, including free entry, free onsite parking, and complimentary refreshments for all registered retail buyers. • Order-writing focus: Designed by buyers, for buyers, the 2027 shows are strategically timed to coincide with industry-standard ordering windows.
