Creativeworld is a product show and order platform. It is inspiring, lively and future oriented. On all four days of the fair, we showcase everything the creative heart desires: visitors can do handicrafts, paint, cut things out, design jewellery, practise gift-wrapping and hold discussions with colleagues.
‘Creativeworld lives from its highly diverse event programme. Our visitors want to experience and test the latest products, try out current trends, and exchange views and ideas on industry-related topics.’
Everyone is talking about street art, a subject that offers the specialist trade a variety of ways to reach new target groups. Street art has made the leap from its humble beginnings to the museums of the world. And even into people’s living rooms. Graffiti – behind the sofa, in the kitchen, on the garden wall or on the balcony wall – is now considered socially acceptable. Numerous manufacturers have identified this trend and are now offering new products and techniques. Moreover, manufacturers offer ways in which the subject of street art can be integrated into shops.
‘The art of graffiti is so varied that you can soon lose the overview: for example, is it better for me to use a paint marker or a graphic marker? Which products are suitable for different backgrounds? My team and I will be answering questions like this in the concept area at Creativeworld.’
The subject of urban art enters a new phase at Creativeworld with the focus on education in 2020. Together with Carlos Lorente of Style Scout – Graffiti Academy, this top theme is in preparation for the specialist trade. You, as a retailer will have the opportunity to learn about graffiti materials and techniques. In the concept area, knowledge will be conveyed via various didactic tools, such as workbooks, tutorials and information pillars. In addition, internal training and workshop events will be presented as methods for transferring knowledge and the diverse array of tools can be tried out under professional guidance.
This takes into account the fact that special solutions are necessary for specialist retailers. For this reason, a variety of creative interactive islands will be presented in the concept area. These will show how you can provide opportunities for interaction at the point of sale, because in order to inspire customers with the theme of urban art and graffiti, there need to be surfaces for trying things out, so that the retailer can present the new techniques. You have the chance to form your own impression of how street art works and pass on this knowledge to their customers. The result: new target groups and additional sales potential.

Fundraising campaign: Creative help
Donations of around 90 Creativeworld exhibitors at the Frankfurter Kinderbüro offices.
Many thanks to all the exhibitors who donated products in 2019!
More than 90 Creativeworld exhibitors took part this year in our fundraising campaign for the Frankfurter Kinderbüro (children’s association). We were there at the beginning of March when immense numbers of donations were distributed to 50 Frankfurt children’s and youth facilities. The consistently positive feedback and huge vote of thanks from the teachers has shown us how important this initiative is in the future as well! So we’re appealing to you here now: Please donate again to this fantastic project in 2020!
A selection of artworks, which have been made from the materials donated, is on show in the in the 'KinderArt' exhibition at the Frankfurter Kinderbüro offices.
