The 57th China International Furniture Fair (CIFF Guangzhou 2026) has successfully concluded at the Canton Fair Complex in Pazhou.
Held across two phases (18–21 March and 28–31 March, 2026), the exhibition spanned 850,000 square meters across 90 halls, bringing together over 5,100 brands from 36 countries and regions, reaching a new record in exhibitor participation.

Guided by the theme CONNECT · CREATE, CIFF Guangzhou continues to evolve beyond the traditional trade fair model, positioning itself as a platform where design, manufacturing and global trade converge.
Its strength lies not only in scale, but in its ability to bring together a complete ecosystem of resources, enabling business development, industry exchange and innovation across the entire furniture value chain.
The participation of 1,582 new exhibitors (31.8% of the total) reflects the dynamism of the platform and its growing capacity to attract new market players alongside established international brands.
The 2026 edition placed strong emphasis on emerging lifestyles and evolving consumer needs. Within the Home Furniture exhibition, new thematic zones — Healthy Aging, Pet Home, Massage Chairs / Function Sofas and New Retail — highlighted key directions shaping the market.
The Healthy Elderly Living Themed Exhibition, featuring nearly 60 companies, presented integrated solutions combining senior-friendly furniture, smart care technologies and service systems, addressing the rapid growth of the silver economy.
