Autumn Fair 2027 in Birmingham

Autumn Fair 2027 runs from Sunday 5 to Wednesday 8 September 2027 at the NEC Birmingham.

What it is

Autumn Fair is a wholesale trade show for home, gift and fashion, and the organiser pitches it as a mid-season buying event ahead of peak trading. Exhibitors are often companies that make their own products. Buyers come from independent retailers, online retailers, garden centres, interior designers, department stores, museums and visitor attractions, and wholesalers.

The floor is split into three destinations (Home, Gift and Fashion). Seminars are free and run on a first-come, first-served basis. The show is run by Hyve Group, which also runs Spring Fair in February.
