Bold Optical Fair: One large optical show for The Netherlands

Great news coming out of The Netherlands, where all ships now sail in the same direction as all parties are joining forces to create one big trade show where everyone is represented.

After the past successful edition of BOLD, all parties affiliated with Stichting Optiek Events (the Dutch Association of Frames Suppliers (NAM), the Dutch Association of Optical Lenses (NAB), the Dutch Association of Contact Lenses (NAC) and purchasing organizations Centrop and Optitrade Retailgroep) collectively chose to support this initiative and join BOLD. After mutual consultation with the parties involved, Hall of Frames decided to support this initiative in the interest of the optical market.

The next edition of Bold Optical Fair will take place on September 10 & 11, 2023 at the Werkspoorkathedraal in Utrecht (in the Netherlands). In the fall of 2023, the Werkspoorkathedraal will be the new home for the optical fair in the Netherlands, where opticians and suppliers can come together. The place for inspiration, purchasing, experience and everything to do with optics or store improvement will be here. Together we are going to make it one big optics event! Let’s take it to the next level!

Date: 10 & 11 September 2023
Location: Werkspoorkathedraal – Utrecht – The Netherlands
