Collective Shows, the curated trade show for swim and activewear brands operated by Forge (formerly Emerald), is adding a Miami edition. The show will debut April 13 to 14, 2027 at The Hangar at Regatta Harbour in Coconut Grove.
The new market joins the company’s established West Coast calendar as a dedicated East Coast show, aimed at buyers across the Southeast, Northeast and beyond. Collective Shows currently stages two editions per year in Southern California. The inaugural Miami edition will feature roughly 120 curated brands spanning premium activewear, swimwear, resortwear and accessories.

“This is the East Coast market the active and swim community has been waiting for, and we’re proud to deliver it,” Nobles said in a statement.
