Next edition outlook
2026-08-09 – 2026-08-11The August 2026 Toronto Market Week runs August 9-11 for exhibit halls (Show T.O. Showrooms open August 6-13), building on strong sales momentum from January 2026, with 20 new exhibitors already signed and existing exhibitors requesting more space.
New hotels added to the official host hotel room block for August 2026 Twenty new exhibitors signed ahead of the August 2026 show, with established brands requesting expanded booth space Hall 3 expansion planned starting with the 2027 editions (January 23-26, 2027 and August 8-10, 2027), not August 2026
Impact
The January 2026 edition of Toronto Market Week was its largest to date, drawing over 400 exhibitors and more than 4,000 buyers across 75,000 net sq. ft. of exhibit space plus 44 permanent showrooms, reinforcing its position as Canada's premier gift, home, and fashion sourcing event. Strong post-show sales momentum led organizers to confirm a Hall 3 expansion for 2027 and lock in 2027 show dates.
Audience quality
The January 2026 edition drew more than 4,000 verified retail buyers who continued placing orders despite snowy conditions, including a high-profile visit from Canadian entrepreneur and influencer Jillian Harris, who sourced products for her subscription box and e-commerce marketplace. This signals a buyer base weighted toward serious, order-writing retail decision-makers rather than casual attendees.
Exhibitor outcomes
Organizers reported strong post-January sales momentum heading into the August 2026 edition, with 20 new exhibitors already signing contracts and established brands requesting additional booth space, suggesting exhibitors experienced sufficient buyer engagement in January to justify expanding their presence.

Plan your trip
Check the latest visa requirements and entry guidelines before travelling.
| Type | Who needs it | Fee | Processing | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) | Visa-exempt foreign nationals (including most business visitors) flying to Canada, such as travellers from the UK, EU, Australia, and about 70 other eligible nationalities. | $5.00 | Minutes to a few days; most approvals are near-instant online | |
| Temporary Resident (Visitor) Visa | Foreign nationals from countries not on Canada's visa-exempt or eTA-eligible list who need to enter Canada for business or tourism. | $75.00 | Several weeks to a few months depending on the visa office | |
| Business Visitor status (no separate visa category) | All business visitors, regardless of whether they enter via eTA or visitor visa, must qualify as a bona fide business visitor under IRCC rules. | Not yet confirmed | Assessed at the port of entry; no separate application |
Canada is visa-exempt for a defined list of countries (e.g., most of Western Europe, Australia, Japan, South Korea) whose nationals can enter without a visa or eTA for short business/tourism stays by land or sea, though air travellers from these countries generally still need an eTA. As of late December 2025, IRCC expanded eTA eligibility (rather than full visa exemption) to roughly 70 nationalities, including some who previously required a visitor visa, provided they hold a valid U.S. non-immigrant visa or held a Canadian visa within the last decade. Nationality-specific eligibility should always be confirmed on the official IRCC eligibility checker before booking travel to Toronto Market Week.
Canada accepts ATA Carnets for temporary duty-free and tax-free import of commercial samples, professional equipment, and goods for display at trade fairs and exhibitions such as Toronto Market Week, valid for up to one year and processed via Canadian Chambers of Commerce or the eCERT Canada portal; all carnet-covered goods must be re-exported in the same state, and consumable giveaways or items sold in Canada cannot be included on the carnet and must instead be accounted for separately with duty and tax paid.
Official visa pageWeather
August in Mississauga is warm and humid. Average daytime highs range from 24°C to 26°C (76°F–79°F), with nighttime lows around 18°C–19°C (64°F–66°F).

Pack light, breathable clothing, a light jacket for air-conditioned halls, and an umbrella or raincoat.

Venue connectivity
The International Centre is exceptionally well-connected. It is located just 3 km from Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) and adjacent to the Malton GO Train station, providing rail access to downtown Toronto and beyond. The UP Express from Union Station provides a fast rail link to the airport. Multiple major highways (401, 403, 407, 410, 427, QEW, and 401) converge nearby. The venue is surrounded by over 10,000 hotel rooms and over 40 brand-name hotels.

Multicultural & Welcoming
Mississauga and the Greater Toronto Area are among the most multicultural cities in the world. English is the primary language, but you will hear dozens of other languages. Tipping 15–20% is customary in restaurants.
Indigenous Land Acknowledgement
The International Centre and the City of Mississauga are located on the traditional territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, and the Huron-Wendat and Wyandot Nations. This connection is honored by the venue.
Local Arts & Festivals
Mississauga has a vibrant cultural scene. The Living Arts Centre hosts performances and gallery exhibitions, while Celebration Square is a hub for outdoor festivals and community events year-round. If you have extra time, explore Port Credit's waterfront or the diverse restaurant scene.
Cash vs. Card
Credit and debit cards are widely accepted across Canada. However, it's always a good idea to carry a small amount of Canadian cash for small vendors, tips, or market stalls.
Practical guides
Everything needed to arrive prepared, navigate the event, and make the visit productive.
Destination: Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ)
YYZ is the primary gateway. Billy Bishop (YTZ) is an alternative for travelers arriving from/to downtown Toronto or short-haul destinations.
Whether a visitor visa is required to attend Toronto Market Week depends entirely on nationality: eTA-eligible and visa-exempt nationals can travel visa-free for short business visits, while other nationals must obtain a Temporary Resident Visa in advance; a special business visa category does not exist, so all attendees are assessed as business visitors at entry.
Estimated cost: Not yet confirmed
Processing: eTA: near-instant to a few days online; Visitor Visa: several weeks to a few months
No event-specific visa exists for Toronto Market Week; attendees should carry an invitation letter or registration confirmation from the organiser (Newcom Media Inc.) plus proof of business ties and sufficient funds, since border officers confirm business-visitor status case-by-case rather than through a distinct visa category.

Plan your trip
Best day to visit: 2026-08-10
Monday, August 10 is the second day of the exhibit halls, when all exhibitors are fully set up and the initial opening-day rush has subsided, allowing for more productive conversations with buyers. It also falls mid-week, making it easier to schedule appointments with exhibitors who may be less overwhelmed than on opening day.
Register for a free buyer badge on the official registration page — Verified retail buyers attend free; non-retail registrants pay a fee, so register early and bring business ID.
Confirm eTA or visitor visa eligibility for Canada — Nationality-dependent; check IRCC eligibility tool well ahead of travel.
Book flights into Toronto Pearson (YYZ) and hotel near The International Centre — Venue is about 2-3 km from YYZ; hotel shuttles are available from host hotels.
Shortlist target exhibitors and sections (MODE, Gift + Home, By Hand, SHOW T.O.) — Use the exhibitor list and show sections pages to prioritize booths given the 4-day, 400+ exhibitor floor.
Prepare a written buying plan and order budget — 91% of exhibitors reported writing multiple orders in prior editions, so buyers who arrive plan-ready close more deals.
Pack business identification (minimum two pieces) for badge verification — Required to qualify for free verified-retail-buyer registration.
Confirm move-in/parking logistics and download the venue floor plan — Free parking is available on-site; Hall 1 and Hall 2 entrances differ, so plan arrival accordingly.
Charge devices and prepare order forms or sourcing app for on-the-spot ordering — Many exhibitors write orders on the show floor.
