FESPA 2024 set to reveal new opportunities in Print, Signage, Personalisation and Sportswear

FESPA Global Print Expo, European Sign Expo, Personalisation Experience and the inaugural Sportswear Pro will take place from 19 to 22 March 2024 at the RAI Exhibition Centre in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. The co-located events will showcase an array of solutions for speciality print, sign making, personalisation, and sports and leisure garment production.

Amsterdam RAI is a popular venue amongst both the FESPA visitor and exhibitor community and has been host to successful FESPA exhibitions in 2006, 2009, 2016 and 2021. The local Amsterdam Schipol airport serves over 310 destinations with direct flights, and the city offers affordable public transport and accommodation.


Michael Ryan, Head of FESPA Global Print Expo, explains, “This year, we’re introducing a set of new event straplines which represent a natural progression from the 2023 events where we encouraged visitors to discover ‘New Perspectives’. The FESPA 2024 straplines; ‘Opportunities, Revealed’ at FESPA Global Print Expo; ‘Opportunities, Illuminated’ at European Sign Expo; ‘Opportunities, Created’ at Sportswear Pro; and ‘Opportunities, Reimagined’ at Personalisation Experience, highlight how there’s always something new to learn and how the sectors that our visitors are active in are often broader than they realise.”


Michael continues, “In our constantly evolving speciality print industry, the possibilities and opportunities are endless and we’re excited to welcome an array of suppliers to highlight their latest, innovative solutions. We look forward to showcasing new growth opportunities to our global community in Amsterdam.”
