ITMA 2027 Returns To Hanover As The Global Textile Industry's Premier Platform
Hanover, Germany – July 2026 – ITMA, the world's leading textile and garment technology exhibition, is set to return to Hanover from 16 to 22 September 2027.
Convening once every four years, the event brings together technology developers, manufacturers, and decision-makers from across the globe to exchange ideas, evaluate solutions, and shape the direction of textile production for the next cycle.
The 2027 edition marks a significant moment for the industry, as ITMA once again provides the platform where long-term manufacturing decisions are made and the future of textile technology is defined.
With mounting pressure on the sector to address sustainability, supply chain resilience, and technological innovation, the timing of this gathering could not be more critical.
ITMA has long been recognised as more than an exhibition. It serves as the industry's compass — a forum where emerging technologies are assessed, business relationships are forged, and the manufacturing strategies of leading companies begin to take shape.
From fibre processing and spinning to finishing and digital integration, the event spans the full breadth of textile production.
Hanover, a city with a strong industrial heritage and world-class exhibition infrastructure, provides the ideal setting for an event of this scale.
The venue's capacity and logistical capabilities ensure that participants from every corner of the globe can engage with the latest developments and innovations the sector has to offer.
With over four years until the next edition, industry stakeholders are encouraged to begin planning their participation now.
Whether evaluating new machinery, forging supplier relationships, or benchmarking against global competitors, ITMA 2027 represents a rare and invaluable opportunity to engage with the full spectrum of the textile and garment manufacturing ecosystem.
Further information on exhibiting, visiting, and programme details is expected to be announced in the coming months.
The last ITMA exhibition was held in Milan in 2023. It featured 1,709 exhibitors from 47 countries and welcomed more than 111,000 visitors from 143 countries.
