LOFT San Francisco // The show in on again!

LOFT will return to San Francisco this Fall and will once again be held at the Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture at Gallery 308.

This historic venue is set in the spectacular Northern Marina District of the city, just by Fishermans Wharf and features expansive views of San Francisco Bay and the Golden Gate Bridge. Surrounded by parkland, the Fort Mason Center is a vibrant cultural hub located within the Golden Gate National Recreation Area.

We are really happy to be back in San Francisco again this September. It’s always exciting to come to such a spectacular city and to return to Fort Mason which has to be one of the best locations for an eyewear show I’ve ever been to. We can’t wait to catch up with our existing vendors and meet some new ones.

Founder, LOFT Eyewear Shows

This year’s San Francisco event will take place over the weekend of September 23-24 2023 and will be open from 11.00am – 8.00pm on Saturday and 9.00am – 6.00 pm on Sunday. There is parking available at the venue and in the surrounding area. As usual there will be a barista, wine tasting, catering and afternoon beverages each day.

We really enjoy coming to San Francisco for this event. It’s fantastic that our key partners for the show keep coming back like MYKITA, SALT Optics, JF Rey, Bevel, Blake Kuwahara, Andy Wolf, Rolf Spectacles, Bellinger, Masahiro Maruyama and Villa Eyewear.

We are very excited to announce that Götti Switzerland, Brett Eyewear, Kio Yamato, Silhouette, Maison Nathalie Blanc and Garrett Leight will be joining us this year along with Max Pittion, Native Sons and Lowercase NYC.

About LOFT Eyewear Shows

LOFT Eyewear Shows are the premier independent luxury eyewear events held annually in New York City and San Francisco. Since 2000, the LOFT events have showcased the most exclusive and cutting-edge designers from around the world.

They are formed by a group of like-minded, independent designers who share a passion for creating great-looking, sometimes funky, sometimes classic eyewear for the discerning consumer.

They believe that our frames should be styled and fitted by independent eyewear retailers who are experts in tailoring our eyewear to the prescription and facial needs of the end user.

Their different approach to design only strengthen our common vision to enhance eyewear styling but also, most importantly, to have fun! The independent collections that are showcased at LOFT originate from the US, France, Japan, UK, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany, Italy, Denmark and Austria.
