The Vietnam International Trade Fair for Apparel, Textiles and Textile Technologies (VIATT) is set to return for its third edition from February 26 to 28, 2026, at the Saigon Exhibition & Convention Center in Ho Chi Minh City. After a strong showing in 2025—with over 19,000 visitors from more than 70 countries and 463 exhibitors from 24 nations—VIATT 2026 is poised to deliver even greater opportunities for global textile and apparel stakeholders.
The upcoming edition will once again span the full textile value chain, with dedicated zones for apparel fabrics, home and contract textiles, technical textiles, nonwovens, and advanced textile machinery and technologies. The Innovation & Digital Solutions Zone will highlight developments in automation, 3D and digital printing, and AI-powered design tools.
Sustainability will remain a core theme, with the Econogy Hub showcasing eco-friendly materials such as recycled polyester, organic cotton, and biodegradable fibers. Tools like the Econogy Finder and Econogy Talks will help buyers connect with green-certified suppliers.
International engagement continues to expand, with returning national pavilions from India, Japan, Taiwan, and Europe. Buyers from major global brands such as Nike, Adidas, and IKEA are expected to participate again in 2026.
VIATT’s fringe programme will also grow, with seminars covering market trends, innovation, and investment opportunities. The Vietnam Investment Summit will be a new feature, aiming to strengthen Vietnam’s role as a regional manufacturing and sourcing hub.
Overall, VIATT 2026 is set to reinforce its position as the ASEAN region’s leading textile trade platform.
