8/21/2024
DALLAS – The September Total Home & Gift Market at Dallas Market Center (September 17-19) is the final buying opportunity of the year to fill inventory with trending gifts and holiday décor for the busy holiday shopping season. Buyers who missed summer markets have a final opportunity to see the latest trends and new product launches. September will also debut new collections for Spring holidays and seasonal décor.

The Total Home & Gift Market will be held alongside Dallas Design Week from September 17-19, enabling a variety of crossover events and activations. Additionally, ArchLIGHT Summit, a commercial and architectural lighting event, will take place at the Trade Mart during this period.

"September's Total Home & Gift Market is a crucial event for retailers looking to secure their inventory for the holiday season,” said Cindy Morris, president and CEO of Dallas Market Center. “As the final buying opportunity of the year, it's the perfect time to discover the latest trends and new collections to ensure that winter merchandise is fresh and exciting.”

Pre-registration, the exclusive method to receive a FastPass for quicker entry, is now available at dallasmarketcenter.com.
