Formland Herning

Founded in 1985, the Formland is one of the most important and inspiring trade events for interior, design, and lifestyle in Scandinavia. The venue is the MCH Messecenter Herning, located in the Danish city of the same name. This modern exhibition center is among the largest and most advanced event locations in the country. Thanks to its central location and excellent accessibility—by train, car, or via the nearby Billund Airport—it offers optimal conditions for a successful trade fair.

Formland takes place twice a year, in February and August. This schedule ensures that trade visitors can always experience the latest trends and innovations for the upcoming seasons. The event is organized by the renowned MCH Messecenter Herning Congress Center, known for its professional management and inspiring atmosphere.

The scope of Formland is broad: the focus is on interior, design, and lifestyle. Exhibits include furniture, home accessories, decoration, lighting, textiles, art, jewelry, and fashion. The fair emphasizes visionary collections, pioneering designs, and innovative interior concepts, with a clear focus on the characteristic values of Scandinavian design—minimalism, functionality, and timeless aesthetics. Thematic installations such as the “Trend Zones” and the “Greenhouse” offer insights into future styles and provide concrete ideas for the retail sector. A special feature is the strong emphasis on sustainability and circular design, exemplified by the “Circular Formland Days”, which highlight recycling, upcycling, and resource-efficient materials.

An extensive supporting program featuring expert lectures, panel discussions, trend talks, and hands-on workshops promotes knowledge exchange, supports innovation within the industry, and enables high-quality networking. Exhibitors and visitors come from the fields of interior, design, furniture, fashion, jewelry, textiles, and other lifestyle sectors. All share the goal of discovering trends at an early stage, making valuable business contacts, and gaining creative inspiration. The fair is aimed exclusively at professional participants such as retailers, designers, and buyers from around the world, including numerous guests from Germany, Norway, Iceland, Greenland, the Faroe Islands, and Asia.

The location in Herning underlines the international profile of the event. The city is a key venue for business events in Northern Europe and, with the MCH Messecenter Herning, offers a modern, well-connected exhibition site known for its excellent infrastructure. Formland thus provides the ideal meeting point for all those seeking inspiration, innovation, and reliable business partnerships in the design and lifestyle sector.

The Formland will take place on 3 days from Sunday, 17. August to Tuesday, 19. August 2025 in Herning.
