Program 2026

Two days packed with brands, trends, inspiration and plenty of entertainment. At “The Stage”, powered by Licensing International Germany, the industry’s most exciting minds come together to discuss the issues that really matter to brands today.
The focus is on three major themes:
Brands, Fans & Audiences | Licensing & Collabs | Brands @ Retail
But BRANDmania is more than just a stage and business.
Look forward to the grand mascot parade and, of course, the legendary evening party, where the industry comes together to celebrate, dance and forge the best connections.
