In 2025, imm cologne is taking a break, leaving many to wonder how this will impact Passagen, Cologne’s celebrated design festival. Passagen 2025 should take place in Cologne from January 10 to 16, 2025, anyway. Festival founder Sabine Voggenreiter addressed these concerns in a recent interview with the Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger. “The cancellation of the trade fair will, of course, affect us,” Voggenreiter acknowledged, “especially after the challenging years we faced during the COVID pandemic. However, we’ve since recovered well.”

The tenth edition of Nomad, Nomad Capri, took place July 6-10, 2022, at the Certosa di San Giacomo on Capri Island. Nomad is a truly unique exhibition. Launched in 2017 from an idea by Giorgio Pace and Nicolas Bellavance-Lecompte, Nomad is a traveling exhibition of collectible design. For every edition, it seeks out the most exclusive locations and perfect frames for art design. The first edition took place at Villa La Vigie in Monte Carlo in 2017. After that, Nomad has traveled to Palazzo Soranzo Van Axel in Venice, Palais Bulles in Théoule-sur-Mer, and Chesa Planta in Sankt Moritz.

Design Post, in Cologne, is not quite an event. In fact, it is a permanent showroom, which comes alive at certain, particularly representative trade fairs. Design Post is located at Deutz-Mülheimer-Strasse 22a in Cologne, so exactly opposite the halls of Koelnmesse. This is a forward-looking location that allows companies to have a permanent showroom, and attract trade fair visitors to the adjacent halls. In addition, Design Post, carved out of a Post Office building, is a particularly striking and attractive location with post-industrial architecture.
