Colorful Dresses at Atlanta Apparel

Exhibit in Social Occasion

 

Our Atlanta shows serve the largest concentration of independent bridal, prom, and social occasion retailers in the South and attract buyers from across the Northeast and Midwest, while our newest show in Las Vegas serves the western US. Formal Markets host social occasion buyers across a wide range of categories multiple times throughout the year. Exhibiting with Atlanta Apparel is a unique experience with a diverse setting that includes both temporary exhibits and permanent showrooms.

Temporary exhibits in Atlanta for bridal, evening, prom, and social occasion accessories are headquartered in The Collective on Floor 10 during our Formal Markets, but may also be housed temporarily in an available showroom space. In Las Vegas, all exhibits are presented in the Expo at World Market Center Las Vegas, a brand new tradeshow space on the Las Vegas Market campus. Our buyers appreciate the variety of our social occasion markets, from permanent showrooms to the curated presentation in The Collective space. Our exhibitors, in turn, build long-term relationships with our leasing and sales teams through years of working together to produce successful shows.
