Alongside these dedicated footwear brands, many of HFW’s womenswear exhibitors also showcase complementary footwear collections, giving buyers even more choice as they curate complete looks for their customers. The show’s mix of established names, trusted best sellers, returning favourites, and emerging brands has become one of its defining features, helping buyers stay ahead of the curve while building collections tailored to the customers they know well.
“Footwear continues to be a strong category at HFW, and we’re delighted to welcome such a fantastic line-up of brands for August. For buyers looking for everyday styles or occasion footwear, there’s a huge amount to discover across the four halls,” says Event Director, Georgia Flynn.
“One of the things I love the most about HFW is hearing when buyers leave having discovered brands they weren’t expecting to find: that’s the beauty of having so many collections together under one roof. We’re really looking forward to welcoming everyone

Time is valuable, so having the ability to compare collections, discover new brands, catch up with suppliers and network with other buyers in one three-day trip is one of the reasons why HFW has become a must- attend event in the calendar. Not only this, but Harrogate boasts an abundance of bars and restaurants, and is also well connected by train, has plenty of parking, and is only 25 minutes away from Leeds Bradford Airport. Alongside three days of buying, visitors can enjoy a series of complimentary networking events throughout the show. The popular coffee, pastry and prosecco happy hours offer buyers the chance to take a break in-between buying. The much-loved HFW Summer Party on Sunday evening will also provide the perfect opportunity to celebrate another season – with canapés, drinks and live music!
