About The Furniture Shows

The Furniture Shows brings together two of the UK’s most influential trade events under one unified brand: the January Furniture Show (JFS) and the Manchester Furniture Show (MFS). Together, they form a powerful, year-round platform designed to support the evolving needs of the furniture and interiors industry - connecting brands, buyers, and designers at key moments in the retail calendar.

January Furniture Show (JFS)
As the UK’s only dedicated, premium furniture and home interiors event in Q1, the January Furniture Show is the ultimate destination for discovering the very best in global furniture design—all under one roof. Returning for its 36th edition from 24–27 January 2027 at the NEC Birmingham, JFS spans four halls and stands as the UK’s largest trade event for furniture design, manufacturing, and retail. It sets the tone for the year ahead, bringing together leading brands and industry professionals to inspire new collections and drive business forward.

Manchester Furniture Show (MFS)
Taking place at a pivotal moment in the buying cycle, the Manchester Furniture Show offers a more relaxed, focused environment for serious sourcing and meaningful connections. Held 5 - 6 July at Manchester Central, MFS is where the industry comes to connect, refresh, and restock. With a curated selection of exhibitors and a strong emphasis on relationship-building, it provides an essential mid-year touchpoint for discovering fresh products and strengthening partnerships.
