About Rome Bridal Week
Rome Bridal Week: Bridal fashion takes the stage in Rome
Rome Bridal Week is the international trade show entirely dedicated to bridal and formal wear, held annually at Fiera di Roma, in the Portuense district of Rome, within the Metropolitan City of Rome Capital (Lazio). For three days, the exhibition halls are filled with established fashion houses, young emerging ateliers, and international brands, attracting buyers, boutique owners, and industry professionals from Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and North America.
An ecosystem of Made in Italy and global markets
More than just a trade fair, Rome Bridal Week is a true experiential ecosystem where Italian craftsmanship engages with global market trends. Made in Italy remains the heart of the event: nearly half of the exhibitors are Italian labels showcasing stylistic research, tailoring, and attention to detail, complemented by international brands that complete a broad and cosmopolitan offering.
The spotlight on runway shows
The grand return of runway shows is one of the hallmarks of the 2026 edition: collections come to life before the eyes of designers and buyers in narrative moments where each garment reflects the identity of its fashion house. Alongside the catwalks, the calendar integrates talks and in-depth sessions on market trends, distribution, and the evolution of bridal retail, as well as networking opportunities, evening events, and informal gatherings.
A benchmark event in the international calendar
Located in Rome, the event serves as an authoritative hub within the international bridal calendar, offering brands high visibility and buyers a privileged look at the latest industry innovations. Exhibition spaces are organized by product category and stylistic positioning to facilitate targeted meetings between brands and buyers.
