The annual trade show, Showcase Ireland, is taking place virtually from the 25 to 29 January

By now we’re used to seeing our favourite events being stalled or pushed out due to the pandemic, so we are delighted to see that Showcase Ireland is going ahead this month. Taking place in a new innovative Virtual Showroom format from 25 to 29 January, 2021, the creative expo is designed to show off the wealth of talent in Ireland to international buyers, tastemakers and retailers.

Supported by Design & Crafts Council Ireland, Enterprise Ireland and the Local Enterprise Offices, Showcase will allow international and Irish buyers to explore the creativity and craftsmanship of the exhibitors, like they would at the RDS each year.

Chair of Showcase Ireland, Eddie Shanahan, says: “Ireland boasts a wealth of talent and creativity and while the pandemic prevents the physical event from taking place, we are delighted to continue to provide a platform for Ireland’s creators and makers to showcase their products to Irish and international buyers through our Showcase Virtual Showrooms. Though this year’s event will look different, we are confident that we will demonstrate the vitality of the Irish craft and design sector to both new and returning buyers. We will also relaunch our Showcase website as a Source Guide, with over 200 designers and makers offering B to B facilities, for Irish and international buyers.”

Hundreds of innovative Irish designers and makers will be on display during the show, and we have selected five names to give a taste of just some of the talent that will be showcased across the five days.
