ABOUT THE FAIR
Kindermode Nord has established itself as a leading trade and order fair for children’s clothing in Germany. The name not only refers to fashion in the northern part of the country, but also represents a unique trade fair concept that showcases the full spectrum of modern children’s fashion – from maternity wear and clothing for babies, children, and teenagers to shoes, accessories, toys, and home textiles.
The event takes place twice a year – in February and August – at the MesseHalle Hamburg-Schnelsen. This modern venue is known for its excellent accessibility and its focus on professional trade fairs with international relevance.
The organizer, MesseHalle Hamburg-Schnelsen GmbH, is a seasoned player in the exhibition industry, recognized for its professional execution and deep market knowledge. The event is exclusively open to trade visitors – including retailers, wholesalers, designers, buyers, and sales professionals from Germany, Scandinavia, and the Netherlands. They attend to discover new products, place orders directly on site, and establish valuable business connections.
The product range includes fashion for babies, children, and teenagers, as well as maternity wear and matching accessories. Whether it's shirts, blouses, tops, sweaters, dresses, skirts, trousers, swimwear, denim, outdoor and sportswear, jackets, evening wear, underwear, or sleepwear – there’s something here for every specialized retailer. The collection is further enhanced by trendy shoes, hats, scarves, tights, belts, eyewear, bedding, and toys.
At the heart of the fair are current and upcoming trends in children’s and youth fashion. Sustainable concepts, eco-friendly materials, and Scandinavian design play a central role. With fashion shows, trend presentations, and a wide range of brands, Kindermode Nord offers an exclusive platform for inspiration, exchange, and business.
Exhibitors – primarily designers, manufacturers, and distributors from the fashion and textile industry – present their collections to a targeted professional audience. Visitors from the retail and fashion sectors use the event to expand their product lines, purchase in-season items, or discover new brand partners.
Hamburg is a vibrant port city with international flair, a high quality of life, and excellent infrastructure. The MesseHalle Hamburg-Schnelsen provides ideal conditions for an efficient and inspiring trade fair experience. Anyone looking to shape the future of children’s fashion will find Kindermode Nord an unmissable event.
The Kindermoden Nord will take place on 3 days from Saturday, 01. August to Monday, 03. August 2026 in Hamburg.
