Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Madrid once again places Spanish fashion at the heart of Madrid’s creative scene.
From 14 to 19 September 2026, the runway event organised by IFEMA MADRID with the support of Madrid City Council will bring together talent, craftsmanship and new creative narratives over six days. The September edition of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Madrid also strengthens its relationship with the capital through a more open format connected with different locations across Madrid.
Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Madrid September 2026
The upcoming edition expands beyond the event’s usual boundaries with a programme spread across several locations. The Greenhouse at the Palacio de Cristal de Arganzuela will host the opening day, while the Palacio de Cibeles will take part through a new format. Most of the programme will move to the Communication and Arts campus in Madrid - San Francisco de Sales at Nebrija University.
This approach makes Madrid an active part of the experience. Architecture, staging and the urban environment will accompany the collections to create a fashion week shaped by different atmospheres and visual languages. IFEMA MADRID remains the organising institution and a key reference for the event, with information available through the dedicated IFEMA MADRID page.
Designers and major names in the 2026 edition
One of the key moments will be the tenth anniversary of Palomo, celebrating a label closely associated with the renewal of contemporary Spanish fashion. The calendar will also welcome back Moisés Nieto, Alvarno and Redondo Brand, bringing different creative perspectives and established identities back to the runway.
The programme also consolidates the presence of Juan Vidal, Adolfo Domínguez, Ernesto Naranjo, Acromatyx and Alex Rivière Studio. Their different approaches to silhouette, materials, craftsmanship and brand identity reinforce the diversity of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Madrid and its role as a showcase for Spanish design.
New voices will also join the programme, with Celia B and Antonio del Canto making their Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Madrid debuts. Their arrival strengthens the event’s commitment to new talent and creates a meeting point between established careers and emerging creative perspectives.
Awards and key moments at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Madrid
Hannibal Laguna will receive the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Madrid National Designer Award, supported by Madrid City Council. The award recognises his career, legacy and international reach at a particularly significant moment, as the label celebrates its 40th anniversary.
The International Designer Award will go to Agua by Agua Bendita, supported by Latin American Fashion Awards. The distinction recognises a creative proposition that combines culture, innovation and sensitivity, connecting tradition with contemporary fashion while strengthening the event’s dialogue with Latin American talent.
What Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Madrid is like live
A live runway show reveals much more than the clothes themselves. Movement, texture, music, lighting, staging and rhythm shape the way each collection is experienced. Every label uses the runway to create its own visual language, turning the presentation into a temporary creative world.
The variety of locations planned for September 2026 will add another dimension. The Greenhouse at the Palacio de Cristal de Arganzuela, the Palacio de Cibeles and Nebrija University will provide different settings for experiencing fashion across Madrid, making the city itself part of the edition’s narrative.
Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Madrid also functions as a meeting point for designers, industry professionals, media and audiences. This concentration of talent creates a space for observing trends, new ideas and the evolution of Spanish fashion, from established labels to designers appearing on the calendar for the first time.
