As one retailer quipped at the gala opening night party, another Atlanta Shoe Market tradition that has become so popular it was moved this year from the host hotel to the larger neighboring Cobb Performing Arts Center, “This is like coming home. They've kept the family atmosphere even as they've grown into the biggest, most important show of the year.”
The Atlanta Shoe Market is held twice a year in Atlanta, Ga., to feature fall and spring styles respectively. The show is sponsored by the Southeastern Shoe Travelers Association (SESTA), which was founded in 1942 and today counts more than 750 industry representatives as members. The Atlanta Shoe Show ranks among the 10 largest shoe trade fairs in the world.
