By Edited by Megan Smalley

Co-located with Formal Markets, the shows will feature thousands of brands and opportunities for trend forecasting.

Registration has opened for the August 2026 edition of Atlanta Apparel (Aug. 3-6) and Formal Markets (Aug. 3-7), both taking place at AmericasMart Atlanta. The co-located markets bring together buyers and brands across apparel, accessories, footwear, bridal, prom, homecoming, children’s and social occasion categories in one sourcing destination.

Both shows will offer access to thousands of brands spanning established industry leaders and emerging collections, creating an efficient and energetic environment for trend forecasting, product discovery and business growth. The markets will serve retailers seeking both immediate inventory opportunities and forward-looking sourcing.

“Atlanta Apparel and Formal Markets continue to build momentum as a premier fashion sourcing destination for the Southeast and beyond,” says Caron Stover, ANDMORE senior vice president of apparel leasing. “The August edition will further elevate the experience with a dynamic mix of emerging and established brands, cross-category opportunities and a vibrant sense of community that keeps buyers and exhibitors returning season after season.”

The August markets will feature expanded sourcing opportunities across key fashion categories, complemented by educational programming, trend presentations, networking events, hospitality experiences and buyer services. The market also represents a strong selling period for contemporary and resortwear categories, as retailers actively source collections to meet upcoming travel demand and plan for the year ahead.

Children’s Market at AmericasMart returns this August, featuring a mix of more than 70 showrooms and temporary exhibitors representing over 200 lines, all located on the category’s dedicated 13th floor. The social occasion and accessories category is also supported by a wide range of showrooms featuring jewelry, handbags and complementary accessories designed to complete social occasion looks.

New this year, Floor 5 in Building 3 will debut as a centralized destination for all temporary exhibitors, including Formal, Bridal and Accessories, and the newly branded First Finds, together creating a high-traffic hub for discovery.
