The exhibition space at Bath Fashion Festival will be an incredible and historic gallery space, is an exciting and rare opportunity for our attendees to see up close a world class fashion exhibition in Bath. In 2024 we were proud to showcase some special pieces from the Manolo Blahnik archive alongside the extraordinary Vivienne Westwood corset installation.
In a major coup for Bath Fashion Festival, iconic designer Jean‑Paul Gaultier will attend the festival across both days, bringing an extraordinarily rare archive exhibition to the city.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for audiences to encounter some of the most influential and boundary-breaking garments in modern fashion history, iconic pieces drawn from Gaultier’s archive that are almost never seen outside major international institutions.
A rare chance for fashion fans and consumers to get up close to the action and watch live catwalk shows featuring a diverse mixture of brands from household names to high street brands, and featuring emerging talent from the local community with items then available for purchase in our pop-up marketplace.
We are now welcoming conversations with brands, organisations, and partners interested in sponsoring or collaborating at Bath Fashion Festival 2026.
As we prepare to unveil our upcoming programme, we invite forward-thinking brands to align with a unique celebration of fashion, design, and creativity, hosted in one of Britain’s most iconic cities. The festival brings together designers, creatives, industry professionals, and audiences under one roof, offering meaningful opportunities for brand visibility and engagement.
If your organisation would like to explore partnership, sponsorship, or collaboration opportunities, we would be delighted to connect.

See you on 12 & 13th June 2026
