Thank you for a fantastic CREATIVA 2026!
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who took part in CREATIVA in Dortmund—to the exhibiting companies, partners, and visitors. For five days, the trade show became a meeting place for the creative scene: from tried-and-true methods to techniques like plotting and machine embroidery, the focus themes “Garden & Floristry” and “Creative Mindset”, as well as plenty of space for inspiration, exchange, and hands-on participation in workshops and activity areas.
We also thank everyone involved with The PINK SPOT and the Craft Academy by Plottertante & friends for their insights on slowing down and creative methods. A diverse program was once again on offer at the CREATIVA Stage in Hall 4, complemented by prominent guests such as Tine Wittler and Eva Brenner.
Save the Date: The anticipation for the next gathering is already palpable-CREATIVA 2027 will take place from March 17 to 21, 2027, in Dortmund.
