India Fashion Week London, November 2026: Tickets, What’s On, and Who It’s For

India Fashion Week London runs on 21 and 22 November 2026 at Novotel London Hammersmith, in its twelfth year. It is the only event in this calendar you can attend by simply buying a ticket — no guest list, no accreditation, no waiting to be approved. Standard entry is £15 and it covers both days.

What actually happens, and on which day

The two days are different events, and the ticket covers both.

Saturday 21 November — the catwalk

The runway programme runs from 7:00pm to 10:00pm, and the standard ticket includes a drinks reception and canapés on arrival. This is the show: designer collections presented across an evening, described by the organisers as a programme of emerging and established Indian design.

Sunday 22 November — the exhibition

The exhibition runs on the Sunday, and it takes place alongside The National Asian Wedding Show. That pairing tells you a lot about who the Sunday is for: it is browsing, buying and wedding-shopping rather than runway-watching. If you are researching occasion or bridal wear rather than looking at collections, Sunday is your day.

Tickets

Standard entry is £15, covering the Saturday evening runway with welcome drinks and canapés, and the site also lists higher tiers at £20 and £30. The organisers state that a ticket is valid for both days.

Who this is for

Three audiences, honestly:

• Anyone curious about Indian fashion in the UK. At £15 with drinks included, this is the lowest-friction way to see Indian designers on a runway anywhere.
• People shopping for a wedding. The Sunday exhibition alongside the National Asian Wedding Show makes this a practical trip, not just a spectacle.
• Designers and brands. Registration to showcase is open; submitting the form returns a Sales Pack setting out the participation options and costs.

The event itself

India Fashion Week London is run by the Platinum Group and describes itself as Europe's largest Asian fashion event. It has been running for twelve years, showing work from emerging and established Indian designers — the organisers describe a range from traditional handloom textiles through to contemporary couture — and combines runway shows with exhibitions and networking. There is a sister edition in the UAE.

A note on the venue

The organisers name the venue as Novotel London Hammersmith but do not publish a street address on their site. We deliberately have not filled that gap: when we tried to confirm the address independently, the hotel group's own links resolved to a different London hotel entirely. Check the venue address on your ticket confirmation rather than on this page, and give yourself room if you are travelling.

Before you rely on this

Every detail above was read from the organiser's own site on 11 September 2026 — its ticketing, showcase registration and event pages. Ticket prices, timings and availability change; where the site did not state something, this page says so instead of guessing.
