What to expect at Inhorgenta Europe - Jewelry & Watches Trade Fair

Fashion and beauty shows run on presentation and timing. Buyers are placing orders for upcoming seasons, compare collections quickly, and care about price points, minimums and delivery dates.

Over four days, traffic usually peaks on the first two days and thins out on the last one. The quieter final day is a good time for longer conversations, visiting other stands and meeting suppliers. Expect most visitors to be boutique and department store buyers and their colleagues, often with a short list of suppliers they want to see.

How exhibitors should prepare for Inhorgenta Europe - Jewelry & Watches Trade Fair

Here is a working timeline counted back from the opening day, February 26, 2027 (expected date, so adjust once it is confirmed):

1. 16 weeks before (Nov 6, 2026)
   Confirm your booth space and read the exhibitor manual. Book hotels in Munich while rates are still normal.
2. 8 weeks before (Jan 1, 2027)
   Order booth services (power, internet, furniture, cleaning) before the early-rate deadlines, and send graphics to print.
3. 4 weeks before (Jan 29, 2027)
   Ship freight to the advance warehouse if the organizer offers one. Book meetings with the visitors you most want to see. Set up lead capture and train the team on it.
4. One week before (Feb 19, 2027)
   Confirm freight arrived, share the staffing schedule, charge every device, and test your lead capture app with Wi-Fi turned off.

Preparation tips for fashion and beauty shows

• Know your wholesale prices, minimum order quantities and delivery windows by heart.
• Prepare a line sheet or lookbook that buyers can take away or receive digitally.
• Check product claim and ingredient rules for cosmetics in the show's country.

Booth tips for Inhorgenta Europe - Jewelry & Watches Trade Fair

• Keep the display clean and well lit; presentation is part of the product here.
• Ask which store or channel the buyer represents and which season they are buying for.
• Let visitors test products where hygiene rules allow.
• Plan shifts of three to four hours. Standing and talking for four days wears people out, and tired staff let good leads walk past.
• If you expect local buyers in Germany, bring key material in the local language as well as English, and have prices ready in the local currency.
• Capture every conversation the moment it ends: scan the badge or card, add a one-line note about what the visitor needs, and rate the lead hot, warm or cold. Notes written that evening are already half forgotten.
