Mandatory is a fashion and lifestyle independent multi-brand Trade Event located in Øksnehallen, a former market hall at the core of Copenhagen’s meatpacking district.

Ready to leverage the city’s dynamic energy and its increasing relevance to the international fashion industry, Mandatory features the unique synergy between food, design, music and fashion that defines Copenhagen.

The Trade Event is a response to the industry’s call for a united front of like-minded brands, buyers and talents, as well as local and international agents and distributors. All of them share innovation, craft and passion as their core values.

The result is a fresh and elevated platform with a professional yet familiar and relaxed atmosphere that showcases a mix of womenswear and menswear from top Scandinavian and international brands.

Mandatory has a unique buyers only showroom experience that offers a more intimate and personal setting for their attendees.
