Spoga+Gafa expects large participation from the Netherlands

The Spoga+Gafa organisers report large participation from the Netherlands for the upcoming trade fair: The Dutch Outdoor Furnishing Association (DOFAS) will be attending the industry gathering for garden lifestyle and BBQ from 22 to 24 June 2026 in Cologne with numerous member companies. ‘The close and trusting cooperation with the association is of great importance to us and an important building block for the international development of the trade fair,’ says Claudia Maurer, Director of Spoga+Gafa.

‘Spoga+Gafa remains an important event for many of our members. We appreciate the measures taken by Koelnmesse to expand the trade fair and strengthen its position in the outdoor living industry,’ says DOFAS Director Harmen Wim Lammers.

With its further developed ‘growing forward’ concept, for example, the 2026 trade fair will focus specifically on formats that address current market requirements, open up new sales channels and strengthen professional exchange along the entire outdoor living value chain.

Among those registered to participate in Spoga+Gafa 2026 are 4 Seasons Outdoor, Applebee, CFM Traders, Eurofar International, Gimeg Nederland, Golden Care, Hartman, Higold, Lesli, Living Life Outdoor Living International, Platinum, Shadow Comfort, Sunsit and Winza. Garden Impressions Outdoor last attended the trade fair in 2019 and is now returning to Cologne.
