Embracing lighting, the UK’s largest furniture and interiors trade event – January Furniture Show, welcomes the return of LIGHT@JFS in 2020 after a highly successful introduction in 2019.
Running from 19th – 22nd January at Birmingham’s NEC, January Furniture Show features over 500 exhibitors – including long established brands who are household names and young brands who are fresh to the market.
