High Point Market

High Point Market is the largest furniture and home furnishings trade fair in the world, held twice each year in April and October in High Point, North Carolina, United States. The fair spans over eleven million square feet of showroom space across approximately one hundred eighty buildings throughout the city, which is known as the Furniture Capital of the World. Each market edition attracts more than two thousand exhibitors from global furniture manufacturers and approximately seventy-five thousand attendees including furniture retailers, interior designers, purchasing agents, and industry media from over one hundred countries. The event serves as the primary sourcing venue for North American furniture retail, where buyers place orders for upcoming seasons across categories including upholstered furniture, case goods, outdoor furniture, lighting, rugs, wall decor, bedding, and decorative accessories. The market also features the Style Spots trend program, educational seminars from the Interior Design Society, and networking events that connect manufacturers with retail buyers and design professionals. For furniture manufacturers targeting the North American market and retail buyers sourcing new collections, this twice-yearly gathering is the most important event on the global furniture industry calendar.
