Wallpaper* outlines key design fairs for 2026, highlighting a mix of established events and fresh newcomers. The pandemic's impact on traditional design shows is evident, with some notable cancellations like the Stockholm Furniture Fair, which is skipping 2026 and returning in 2027. Others, like Salone del Mobile in Milan, adapt by introducing smaller, curated pavilions. The rise of agile fairs, such as Alcova and Nomad, points to a shift toward more enjoyable and less overwhelming experiences for attendees. January kicks off with Paris Déco Off and Maison & Objet, running from January 14 to 19. These events set the tone for design trends, with a focus on craftsmanship this year. New on the scene is Shoppe Object Paris, debuting from January 17 to 19, featuring a curated selection of international brands. Another new fair, Der Pavilion in St. Moritz, opens on January 29, offering a residency-style exhibition model focused on deeper engagement. In Toronto, the DesignTO Festival runs from January 23 to February 1, showcasing local studios through workshops and discussions that tackle significant issues like climate change and social justice. In Mexico City, Zona Maco, from February 4 to 8, stands out as Latin America's largest art fair, featuring British designer Lee Broom and a mix of international and local talent at Unique Design X. This combination of events illustrates a vibrant and evolving design calendar for 2026.
