Bridal Trade Show Announces New Date

The Bridal Trade Show has revised its official dates to March 6th–7th, 2026, at the Manchester Central Convention Complex. Whether you're a boutique buyer, designer, manufacturer, or industry creative, this is your early invitation to mark your calendar for a show designed to reflect the evolving face of bridal fashion and business.

NEW DATES: 6th & 7th MARCH 2026

"TO BETTER SERVE THE NEEDS OF OUR VIBRANT BRIDAL INDUSTRY, WE'RE MOVING THE DATE FORWARD GIVING EXHIBITORS THE OPPORTUNITY TO LAUNCH THEIR NEW SEASON COLLECTIONS EARLIER AND ENSURING TIMELY DELIVERIES INTO STORES, RIGHT WHEN BRIDES NEED THEM MOST."

Tony Bromilow

Why the Date Change?

As a newly launched show, we've been listening carefully to the needs of our community. After consulting with exhibitors, retailers, and industry insiders, it became clear that an early March slot better aligns with buying cycles and gives designers more space to showcase fresh collections post-season. The revised dates are strategically timed to maximise exposure, orders, and networking potential—without clashing with other major events.

Why Manchester?

Manchester is more than a location—it’s a vibe. It’s a fashion-forward, creatively charged city with incredible transport links, iconic venues, and a buzzing hospitality scene. We're proud to bring the show to a destination that reflects the energy and modernity of today's bridal world.
