Kids' Time 2026 Launched! Targi Kielce, the business centre of the children's products and services business sector

17 February 2026
From Tuesday to Thursday, Targi Kielce hosts Kids' Time 2026 – the largest, fully business-oriented event for the children's industry in Poland. Product launches, international contracts, brand debuts, and a strong educational block attract producers, distributors, and buyers from Poland and abroad.

17–19 February, the Targi Kielce expo halls once again become the centre of the toy and product industry for children and parents. Kids' Time 2026 is a business-oriented event that combines product launches, international trade relations and substantive support for producers and the education sector.

Premieres that will set the trends of the season

Premieres are held before products officially go on sale; this is one of Kids' Time's strongest points.  In Kielce, brands such as JUNAMA® and ADAMEX are showcasing their latest products, ranging from ultra-light, luxurious stroller models to innovative child-safety solutions. Many companies also announced their premieres: Alilo, Marko, Paola Reina to name a few. The organisers emphasise that almost every manufacturer came with a new offer for the upcoming season.

 Debut Zone and international character

Kids' Time is also a space for companies presenting their offerings in Kielce for the first time. The Debut Zone and the presence of exhibitors from many countries confirm the trade fair’s growing international dimension.

 Exports and new markets

This year's expo places a strong emphasis on internationalisation and the trade fair is held under the honorary patronage of the Polish Investment and Trade Agency. PAIH, the Polish Investment and Trade Agency, experts discuss opportunities for expansion into the Middle East and Asian markets, including Saudi Arabia, Turkey, India, Uzbekistan, and Malaysia. A new partnership with the Ukrainian Toy Industry Association also supports the event.

Safety and education

The agenda also includes child safety events: the CYBEX brand presents the Car Crash Simulator and an expert demonstration on proper child transport.

The educational segment is also strongly represented.  TUBAN presents sensory novelties and solutions for educational institutions.

 Thursday – a day for education

The third day will be held under the banner “Tomorrow’s education starts today. The child at the centre of changes in the modern world. The conference opens with a lecture by Dr Aleksandra Piotrowska on children's mental health, and the program includes training and workshops for teachers and facility managers.

Kids' Time 2026 runs until Thursday at Targi Kielce and once again confirms its position as the key B2B event for the child products and services business sector in Central and Eastern Europe.
