Here's the full programme for the first Antwerp.Fashion Festival

From 4 to 7 June 2026, Antwerp will be the beating heart of fashion. The Antwerp.Fashion Festival will transform the city into an open, dynamic trail of shows, installations, expos, talks and events - spread across shops, museums, galleries and unexpected locations. Visitors navigate through the city along a rich and layered programme that reveals the diversity and energy of the Antwerp fashion industry.

The festival is organised by Flanders District of Creativity and the City of Antwerp, in collaboration with MoMu and with the support of EventFlanders.

From runway to streetscape

Fashion does not only take place on the catwalk during the festival. Installations, windows and events bring fashion to the streets, while designers show their work through shows, and presentations. This creates a trail that reaffirms Antwerp as a leading international fashion capital.

Strong content programme

With exhibitions in leading institutions and talks for professionals and the streetwear event JUNCTION for a young audience, the festival connects different generations and disciplines. At the same time, as a platform for a new generation of designers and creative voices, the festival offers a broad and up-to-date view of today's fashion industry.

Meeting, discovering, experiencing

In addition to the content, the festival focuses strongly on encounters. Openings, talks, workshops, parties and a game bring creators, the public and the sector together - and turn the city into one big meeting place around fashion. The Antwerp.Fashion Festival consciously opts for an accessible and urban approach, taking fashion out of its classical context and making it visible to a wider audience.
