About the event
Update
Who’s Next 2026 will return as a physical event. Organisers have already announced the dates for the fair’s latest edition. Designers and buyers can look forward to an intense event schedule between the 5th and 7th of September 2026.
Preface
Who’s Next is the fashion industry’s semi-annual trade show. It offers an encompassing and thorough review of the upcoming fashion season's up-to-the-minute trends. It accomplishes the task by showcasing the latest collections and inspirational sources for segments, such as leather products, purses, shoes, travelling apparel, accessories, and lifestyle products. This allows a diverse range of industry specialists to remain up-to-date on the newest design ideas, colour palettes and material solutions. As a result, the event’s editions, which are held once in winter and once in autumn, frequently receive over 46 000 attendants ranging from international buyers to trendsetters and journalists. Such participants travel from more than 100 nations and represent continents such as Asia, the Americas, and Europe. Apart from learning about the forthcoming season’s fashion styles, attendants can also learn about new challenges during the event’s hosting at the Paris Expo Port de Versailles.
About Who’s Next
The Who’s Next event features a variety of sub-events. Among them are networking, conferences and competitions, such as the BabyBrand Competition. The participant list features diverse leading enterprises from the leather products, fabrics, clothing, footwear, and fashion industries. Examples include Geox, Gemini, and MCM.

Dear Tom,
Thanks for your e-mail. I would have contacted you in any case to thank you for finding the hotel. The Grand Hotel Mussmann was excellent in every respect. The location was convenient for the tram and the bedrooms were quiet, even with the window left open at night. The rooms were spacious, spotlessly clean, light, and tastefully decorated. For me, the combination of tiled and wooden floors was a bonus, much preferred to carpets. There was a conveniently-placed large desk on which to work by the window and WI-FI available free of charge. The breakfast was very good and the staff friendly and helpful. Marks – 10 out of 10! We would like to stay in this hotel the next time we attend the Hannover Show in April 2017; (we exhibit there on alternate years). Many thanks to you for finding just the right hotel for us. I would recommend your service to others without hesitation.
Kind regards,
Janet Dixon

Hi Simon,
Lovely to talk to you earlier on. Thanks for your assistance here, we didn’t have any problem with the rooms/bookings which is all you can hope in these cases!
We’d be in touch for 2020 as I can’t confirm how many people will attend and on what dates.
Thanks,

Good morning Tom,
Bauma went well and the hotel was really nice and very well located! We will certainly give positive feedback.
Regarding next Bauma we would like to see the prices for Hotel Hoelzer Braeu but, since the next edition will be in three years, we need maximum flexibility regarding changes and cancellation.
We would also like to see other options so that we can figure out the various offers.
Thank you very much,
Have a nice day

Dear Tom,
We all had a good stay at Motel One in Dusseldorf. Clean, simple rooms but good showers and beds. I stayed one more night which was paid by a cancellation from one of us at the first night. Very reasonable. Am on the way back and we had a succesfull Anuga.
Thanks dor your help.
Best regards,
Martha

Our trip to the EMO Hanover fair was successful, overall it was a great trip with lots to see and do in Hanover.
We were very satisfied with the accommodation, although we were initially looking for a hotel, we actually preferred the apartment accommodation to that of a hotel.
The service we received from Jane was GREAT.
From the moment Anton sent the request for accommodation, we received a number of accommodation options within our price range.
We have received prompt detailed responses to all the questions we had.
The payment process was simple and easy.
The location of the accommodation was perfect, a nice quiet neighbourhood with easy access to trains for transport and a number of restaurants within walking distance.
I will definitely recommend Travel To Fairs to anyone looking for accommodation when travelling abroad to attend Trade shows.

Yes we are back from our trip and happy for you to pass on the below regarding Ashleys Gardens
We could walk from the venue to the Messe Dusseldorf exhibition centre which was a big advantage for us. So the location was key and a big tick.
The hotel is of course very old and the rooms are very small with no lift so up 2 flights of stairs with bags for everyone.
Restaurant is popular with the locals and often cannot fit you in for dinner and wont let you charge back to the rooms.
Staff are friendly and breakfast is good.
All the best.
