The International Textile Alliance (ITA) has moved the dates of its upcoming Spring Showtime Market to June 12-16, in response to the COVID-19 situation. The new dates coincide with the recently revised dates for the Spring High Point Market set for June 12-14, and gives attendees the opportunity to attend both major events in one trip.
“In an effort to support our industry, community and stakeholders, ITA and its board of directors has decided to move the date of our spring Showtime market to coincide with the new High Point Market dates,” explained Kelly DiFoggio, president of ITA’s board of directors and director of sales and marketing for Yarn & Loom. “Our main concern is the health and wellbeing of attendees and the High Point/ Triad community and our decision reflects an effort to simplify travel and participation for attendees of both of these markets. Our new dates of June 12-16 include three days of overlap with the revised High Point Market and two additional days afterward.”
ITA Member showrooms will be available by appointment during these new dates for the market and temporary exhibitors will also be on display as usual.
ITA says it will reserve the right to change this decision and reschedule the event based on the ever-evolving state of the home furnishings industry as it relates to the COVID-19 situation.
