Who can attend?
Pure London is held twice a year and is the UK’s leading trade fashion buying event. Pure London and Pure Origin is only open to registered trade visitors, those looking to start a new business (in the next 12 months) and accredited journalists. Unfortunately, it is not open to members of the general public.
I am a student, am I able to attend the show?
Students of Undergraduate level and above (individuals and groups) on relevant courses of study are welcome to attend after 9am on the last day of the show but will not be permitted to trade. Students will be asked to show an NUS identity card or equivalent student identity. All students will be required to register for the event via the normal registration process. *Please note, photography is not permitted at any time.
Can I bring children?
We strongly advise that children under 16 do not attend the event as this is a large trade-only event and there are no crèche facilities. A child entry pass will be required for all those under the age of 16 – these can only be picked up on the day from the registration desks in the main entrance. Anyone over the age of 16 will be required to register for the event via the normal registration process.
