Full details: MIFF 2027 event guide
Southeast Asia’s largest furniture trade show returns to Kuala Lumpur from 1 to 4 March 2027, spreading across the Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Centre and the World Trade Centre Kuala Lumpur with 700-plus exhibitors from ASEAN and beyond.
According to officials, the Malaysian Furniture Council joins as Industry Partner alongside the Muar Furniture Association and the Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation, a three-way collaboration announced in November 2026. “Bringing more of the industry together is how we aim to make every buyer’s visit worthwhile and efficient,” said MIFF general manager Kelie Lim at the press conference. MFC president Desmond Tan said the council would work with MIFF to promote Malaysian furniture worldwide. MFA president Steve Ong welcomed the step toward a broader cross-section of the industry on one platform.
What to expect
The programme includes the MIFF Furniture Design Competition finalist showcase, themed “PAW-Nexus: The Pet-Friendly Furniture Design Challenge,” and the fifth edition of the xOrdinary showcase, themed “Happiness.” An opening ceremony kicks off proceedings on 1 March at MITEC. A buyers’ night follows on 2 March. An awards ceremony closes the main events on 3 March. Industry seminars run from 1 to 3 March.
The fair has connected Malaysian manufacturers to global markets for more than 30 years.
Tickets and how to attend
Registration lives solely on the official website at miff.com.my. No walk-up passes are distributed at the door. The show welcomes trade professionals, interior designers, and serious hobbyists, but capacity limits apply and pre-registration is strongly encouraged.
Where to stay
For a splurge, Hyatt Regency Kuala Lumpur sits at or right beside the venue. For better value, Cormar Suites Kuala Lumpur is a newly renovated 4-star hotel in central Kuala Lumpur, about 15 minutes’ walk from the Petronas Twin Towers. Its studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom suites are larger than a standard hotel room, each with a full kitchenette, a work desk, fast WiFi and a bathtub, and it usually costs far less than the big-brand hotels.
How to get there from the city centre, what is nearby and the full event details are on the MIFF 2027 guide. Event dates fill hotels fast: book direct with Cormar Suites for the best available rate, and confirm times and entry rules with the organiser before you go.
