Essen is gearing up for an exciting edition of BRANDmania, scheduled for June 24-25, 2026. This prominent festival serves as a major B2B event in the licensing industry, allowing brands, licensors, and agencies to converge in a vibrant setting. The registration process is officially open, inviting interested parties to secure their stands and showcase their innovations.

The venue for the upcoming BRANDmania is the historic Zeche Zollverein, a site renowned not just for its architectural brilliance but also for its relevance in the industrial history of Germany.

Notably, this year’s festival is bolstered by high interest, with many leading brands and key players already committed to attending.
