Co-located event brings performance fabric sourcing and textile technologies to PGA Show attendees.
ORLANDO, Fla. – Functional Fabric Fair Winter, powered by PERFORMANCE DAYS®, returns to the Orange County Convention Center January 27–29, 2027, alongside the PGA Show, bringing performance textile sourcing into the same venue as the golf industry’s annual gathering.
For PGA Show attendees involved in apparel design, product development and sourcing, Functional Fabric Fair Winter offers access to fabric mills and suppliers showcasing performance fabrics, finishes, trims and accessories. The event also features Expert Talks addressing material performance, sustainability and sourcing.
“Golf apparel is one of the most active categories for performance fabric innovation, and brands want suppliers who deliver on function, durability and sustainability,” said Steve McCullough, Event Vice President, Functional Fabric Fair. “Placing the fair alongside the PGA Show puts those suppliers in the same building as the designers and product developers who need them, during a week when the whole golf industry is in Orlando.”
