The global federation of print associations has given more details about this year’s exhibitions

As businesses return to work with the start of 2024, FESPA Global Print Expo has begun to countdown to its exhibition taking place in Amsterdam, the Netherlands in March 2024.
With over 425 companies exhibiting the exhibition will be split into four co-located events: FESPA Global Print Expo, European Sign Expo, Personalisation Experience, and Sportswear Pro, all of which will take place at the RAI Amsterdam from March 19th to 22nd, 2024.
FESPA has confirmed the inclusion of suppliers from textile, screen, and wide-format print such as Agfa, Brother, Colorjet India, Liyu International, Mimaki, Roland, Epson, and swissQprint.
The exhibition will also see the return of the Personalisation Experience which had a large presence at last year’s show in Munich. Suppliers in the zone include international businesses such as XMPie, Kit Builder, Mediaclip, PunchCloud OU, and Tajima Europe.
A new part of this year’s show will be the long-awaited Sportswear Pro, where visitors can see solutions for direct-to-garment, direct-to-film, embroidery, and heat transfer printing.
Michael Ryan, head of FESPA Global Print Expo, says: “One of the biggest differentiators of the FESPA events is the truly diverse range of products on show. With our clear focus on solutions for speciality print businesses, including graphics producers, textile and industrial printers, and visual communications specialists, we deliver a concentrated experience where visitors can find everything they need in one space.”
FESPA has also given a positive look ahead for signage solutions at live events as it has confirmed this year’s European Sign Expo has already increased in size compared to last year with over 85 confirmed suppliers.
Visitors will be able to experience solutions such as channel lettering, digital and dimensional signage, illuminated displays, and out-of-home (OOH) media.
Ryan adds: “With the inclusion of signage, personalisation solutions, and technologies for sportswear production, visitors can immerse themselves in an abundance of creative and commercial opportunities that are directly relevant to their business.”
Registration for the show is now live and provides entry free entry to all four exhibition areas for members of a FESPA national Association or FESPA Director. Non-members can also save money using the code FESM424 before January 19th, 2024.
