The countdown is on for Southern Christmas Show 2026, the 59th Annual Southern Christmas Show,, staged in Charlotte, United States from 11 November 2026 to 22 November 2026 and set to gather the sector under one roof. The floor fills with brands, distributors and procurement teams, all there to compare products and strike deals in person. This annual gathering builds on each previous edition. The guest list runs deep, with something like 95000 attendees expected on site. The Park Expo & Conference Center provides the backdrop, with the space and facilities to match the programme.

Charlotte earns its place on the schedule. Equal parts business hub and destination, it gives attendees a reason to arrive early and stay a little longer. Reaching Charlotte is straightforward, with strong international connections and local transport that make getting to the venue easy. Book ahead and you will have your pick of Charlotte's hotels, from the practical to the memorable.

Expect Gifts, Accessories, Apparels, Hobby and Home & Interior in abundance, presented by the brands and manufacturers shaping each of these areas. For buyers and sellers alike, it is a chance to do in a few days what would otherwise take months of separate meetings. Some 400+ exhibitors set out their latest, turning the floor into a live snapshot of the sector. Marketplace Events handles the organising, and the seamless run of the days is the proof.

It is the kind of fair where a single meeting can open a new market. Southern Christmas Show 2026 remains a key fixture for trade professionals, agents and distributors, and an edition worth planning for.

As with most major events of this kind, registering in advance and planning your schedule ahead of time is recommended.
