Kind + Jugend 2026

The leading international trade fair for high quality baby and toddler products

Kind + Jugend has established itself as a business and trend platform for international baby and toddler products. This is because, once a year, the creative energy and power of innovation of the entire industry is gathered here in Cologne.

International manufacturers present high quality, innovative products that will inspire parents now and in the future with their unique diversity. Their selection extends from baby and toddler clothing through toys and furniture to products revolving around the transport and safety of young ones.

Trade visitors can network directly at the pulse of the industry, experience the latest trends on location, order products and in this way design their assortment attractively.

Discover yourself what Kind + Jugend has to offer you and your business.

In the background, a large digital display reads “INCREDEBLE FLEXIBILITY” alongside an image of a robot or machine. The women sit attentively on colorful, comfortable chairs—some taking notes or checking their phones. The space features a modern design, including decorative rings on the wall.
