Creativ Salzburg

Creativ in Salzburg is a trade fair that has served as a central platform for innovation, trends, and business opportunities in the gift, home accessories, and lifestyle sectors since its founding in 1971. Each year, the fair opens its doors at the Messezentrum Salzburg, showcasing the latest products, visions, and trends.

Organized by Messezentrum Salzburg GmbH, one of Austria’s leading trade fair organizers, Creativ sets industry standards and brings together experts, retailers, designers, and creatives from across Europe. The event is structured around four clearly defined themes: “Trend”, featuring decorative and festive items, stationery, and seasonal innovations; “Alpin”, serving as a stage for artisan crafts, regional one-of-a-kind pieces, and natural materials; “Home”, presenting everything related to home atmosphere, comfort, table culture, and garden; and “Chic”, offering fashionable accessories, jewelry, and minerals, often sourced directly from producers.

The fair features a diverse range of products and services that go far beyond traditional gift items. Floristry, porcelain, home textiles, culinary gifts, home and garden accessories, as well as innovative lifestyle products, create an inspiring marketplace for new ideas and fresh impulses. Creativ is regarded as a reliable trend barometer, as the most important seasonal trends are presented here to a broad professional audience for the first time.

Exhibitors primarily represent the fields of home décor, gifts, artisan crafts, design, and lifestyle. The trade audience includes retailers, buyers, interior decorators, and other industry professionals seeking inspiration, new ideas, and business contacts.

The city of Salzburg lends the event a special atmosphere with its rich cultural heritage and picturesque setting. The modern exhibition center is easily accessible—by train, car, or public transport—and provides the ideal infrastructure for an efficient and inspiring visit. For anyone looking to update their assortment, expertise, or network, Creativ in Salzburg is the ideal meeting place year after year.

The Creativ in Salzburg took place from Thursday, 28. August to Saturday, 30. August 2025.
