With the Digital Fair, Performance Days has created a virtual alternative for visitors, exhibitors, and partners to stay in touch and on the pulse of textile development. Digital Fair is not only displaying interesting fabrics and accessories from the Performance Forum for summer 2022, but everything from the fair can be experienced in digital form.

In the Supplier World, initiating a contact will be easier than before with the exclusive online profiles of each exhibitor. The curated exhibitors can show their most important fabrics, as well as brand new videos of their latest products and expanded information. Visitors can get to know the suppliers digitally, make direct contact, and even order fabric samples online, according to a press release on the show.

Expert Talk Webinars is being held on April 22-23, 2020 online. The webinars include a presentation of the fabric highlights of the Performance Forum by Ulrike Arlt, as well as a talk on the new colour trends by Nora Kühner. The webinars (less the interactive comment function) will be available online after the fair.

In the Color Trends section, appropriately matching designer Nora Kühner’s webinar, the new colour trends for summer 2022 is available online as early colour information. The colour chart for winter 2021/22 trends can already be ordered free of charge on the website. In the Forum Fabrics, Forum Accessories section, the 240 best fabrics is shown by category, along with the best accessories. The categories include a range from Baselayer to Outer Midlayer and 3-Layer as well as Safety & Durability fabrics. All products shown in the forum are sustainable, the materials, processing, and treatments. The products on exhibit at the Performance Forum have been carefully selected by the Performance Forum Jury, which, because of the current situation, will be met via video conference link. A written summary of the trends per category will provide visitors a quick overview. Fabric samples can be tested and samples ordered all with one click. Two award winners have been chosen and can be found in this area with all their details as well as all Jury Like fabrics and accessories.

In the Focus Topic section, visitors interested in the current Focus Topic can learn virtually about the current topic, which features natural fibres and natural functions like new yarn technologies and treatments. The theme ‘Inspired By Nature – From Fibres To Green Treatments’ summarises facts and good-to-know information while letting users read up on the 24 best fabrics for this topic.

In Sportsfashion By Saz, Performance Days has put together a comprehensive opportunity at short notice so that visitors and exhibitors can get in touch with each other despite all adversity and exchange information about all the latest trends. The magazine Sportsfashion by Saz as partner has produced an online edition of the Digital Fair that provides more details about the exhibitors and trends and can be viewed and downloaded as a PDF by all trade fair visitors and exhibitors for free.
