ABOUT THE FAIR
Kids & more Schuhtage Hannover is a specialized trade fair focused on children’s footwear and related accessories—an essential event for professionals in retail, wholesale, and the fashion and footwear industries. The name “Kids & more” not only refers to the product category but also highlights the expanded offering, including accessories, care products, and innovative supplementary items that round out a forward-thinking children’s footwear assortment.
Held twice a year—in February and August—the event takes place at SOC Schuh Order Center in Langenhagen. The venue stands out for its convenient location near Hannover-Langenhagen Airport and the capital of Lower Saxony. The fair is organized by Brandboxx Hannover, a seasoned event host known for its industry-specific and professionally managed exhibitions.
At the heart of Kids & more Schuhtage are the latest collections from national and international manufacturers—ranging from sporty to elegant, from functional to fashionable. The exhibition is complemented by a curated selection of footwear accessories such as insoles, laces, and care products, which enhance the overall offering in a meaningful way. A key feature of the fair is the mix of established showrooms and innovative guest exhibitors, all presented on spacious shared exhibition areas—ideal for quick orientation and targeted interaction.
The event is exclusively aimed at trade visitors and provides optimal conditions to preview new collections early, place orders on-site, and build valuable business relationships. Attendees also benefit from in-person networking with exhibitors and industry peers, along with special formats such as design competitions that spotlight creative assortment ideas.
Most exhibitors come from the footwear and fashion sectors, with a clear focus on children’s products. The visitor profile is equally well-defined: retailers, wholesalers, purchasing managers, and decision-makers from the German-speaking region and beyond make up the core audience.
Kids & more Schuhtage Hannover plays a significant role in the economic development of the children's fashion segment and underscores Hannover’s position as a leading trade fair location in Northern Germany.
SOC Schuh Order Center itself impresses as an event venue with its modern infrastructure, close proximity to the airport, and excellent connections to public transport and the motorway network. As a result, the trade fair visit becomes a successful experience not only in terms of content but also in terms of logistics—efficient, professional, and precisely tailored to the needs of a specialized professional audience.
