Philadelphia's Gift Show Celebrates Three Decades as the Region's Top Wholesale Marketplace
For three decades, Philadelphia has been the go-to destination for retailers seeking fresh products and emerging brands in the gift industry. The largest and longest-running gift show in the Mid-Atlantic region will celebrate its 30th anniversary with a milestone event on February 1st through the 3rd at the Greater Philadelphia Expo Center.
The upcoming edition promises to be the most celebratory yet, featuring over 200 exhibitors showcasing hundreds of product categories. From Holiday & Seasonal to Decorative Accessories, Made in USA, Handmade & Handcrafted, Jewelry, and more, attendees can expect a diverse selection of merchandise that will appeal to specialty retailers. The show's diverse mix of exhibitors has established it as a trusted wholesale shopping destination for retailers.
According to April Holinek, Show Director, "It's hard to believe we're celebrating 30 years of the Philadelphia Gift Show. Our show has always been about bringing people together." This year, the event will feature special giveaways, anniversary celebrations, and an incredible lineup of exhibitors. Whether you've been with them since the beginning or are joining for the first time, the show's organizers can't wait to welcome you.
To enhance the buyer experience, the three-day event will feature a range of activities. On Sunday, February 1st, the first 100 stores through the doors will receive goody bags filled with exhibitor samples, followed by a cake and champagne toast celebrating 30 years of the show. Daily prize giveaways featuring exhibitor-sponsored gifts and merchandise credits will run throughout the event.
On Monday, February 2nd, attendees can enjoy another goody bag giveaway for early arrivals, while on Tuesday, February 3rd, buyers can participate in daily giveaways and receive a lunch voucher available at registration.
The Philadelphia Gift Show offers free admission for qualified buyers and attracts retailers from a wide range of industries. The upcoming anniversary show promises to be an extraordinary celebration of Made in America brands – just in time for America's 250th birthday.
Lisa Berry, Group Vice President at Clarion Events, added that this milestone year is all about honoring craftsmanship and innovation. "Retailers can discover the abundance of homegrown products that will define 2026." Retailers can learn more and register to attend at philadelphiagiftshow.com/pvoice.

. Three decades is a long time, and it's impressive that the show has managed to stay relevant, but will it be able to keep up with changing consumer trends? The fact that they're focusing on Made in America brands might just be a nod to the growing demand for domestic products, but I'm not sure how much of an impact this will have 
. Still, it's awesome that they're celebrating 30 years and offering some cool perks for attendees, like those goody bags 
. The show organizers seem excited to bring everyone together, which is great for the local community, but let's hope retailers are prepared for a busy and potentially overwhelming experience 
.
! i think its awesome how they're gonna celebrate with special giveaways & prizes 
. the fact that they'll have goody bags filled with exhibitor samples for the first 100 stores thru the doors on sunday 
. plus, getting a lunch voucher at registration? that's like, the ultimate perk 
. im hyped to see what new & exciting brands they'll have this year 
just thinkin, who doesnt love gettin gifts? 
... seems like most of them are just looking for a foot in the door with all these new retailers coming in... what's the real purpose of this show anyway? 
is being thrown around left and right, but who's really seeing that kind of return on investment? 
. Anyway, can't wait to see what Made in America brands they'll have on display this year 
... who doesn't love free stuff? 
It's also cool that they're highlighting Made in USA brands - our economy could use a boost! 
The fact that it's open to qualified buyers for free is pretty sweet too. Maybe the organizers will give some shoutout to the newer vendors, though. Just saying...
