COTERIE New York - Sep. 9 - 11, 2026
BEFORE THE EVENT
- Register yourself – and your team – so you receive all necessary event information well in advance of the event.
- Book your hotel and travel with COTERIE New York at a discounted rate exclusive to our exhibitors and attendees.
- Strategize your purchasing plan by identifying inventory or technology gaps and setting a budget. Pro tip: plan to visit at least 10 new vendors and attend a few community conversations to see what’s new and diversify your offerings.
- Get inspired and set discovery goals by reviewing the exhibiting brand list and following @COTERIE_Show on Instagram and LinkedIn. Pro tip: if you’re looking for something specific like sustainable brands, review the brand list to identify the right vendors for you to visit while on-site.
- Paper badges will be onsite to ease your experience. More information on badges to come.
- Pack a comfortable pair of shoes and be sure to bring a notebook.
WHILE YOU'RE ON-SITE
- Start early so you aren’t rushed. The event opens at 9AM – if you’re pre-registered (which we strongly encourage) simply print your badge on-site and scan right into the hall to begin shopping.
- Walk every aisle to ensure you don’t miss any hidden gems that will make your offerings stand out next season.
- Don’t be shy. If you see a busy booth, introduce yourself, and ask what time you should come back.
- Write orders while you’re at the show to avoid missing out on merchandise while it’s available.
- Attend a community conversation or networking event while you’re on-site to connect with your industry peers.
- Pro tip: take photos of what you buy so you can easily remember what you purchased and so you can share with your staff post-event. (Remember to ask the vendor first)
AFTER THE EVENT

- Review all orders to make sure your delivery dates and details are correct.
- Follow up to confirm orders details like shipping and timing with your vendors.
