FN Platform Expands and Moves
FN Platform, the footwear show jointly produced by Advanstar Communications and Footwear News, said its upcoming Feb. 14–16 edition at the Las Vegas Convention Center will be more than 35 percent bigger than its August 2010 show.
To accommodate the expanded show, which is expected to include 1,250 footwear brands, FN Platform will now be held in the convention center’s South Hall one hall over from the WWDMAGIC show.
The change in venue—which gives the show its own lobby, registration and transportation options—is expected to give FN Platform increased visibility among buyers.
The show format—which includes offerings from men’s, women’s, juniors and children’s brands—will not change with the move, according to Advanstar.—Erin Barajas
