The annual, One Fine Baby event returns to Melbourne at The Royal Exhibition Building, Carlton, 9 - 11 September 2016. Recognised as Australia’s premier retail destination for design-led baby, family and lifestyle products, the exhibition welcomes an outstanding, curated line-up of over 80 carefully-selected brands (including Chi Khi, Bella Butter Cup, Dyson, Sunday The Label and Stuck On You) in baby and child-related industries under the one roof.

Supported by the highest calibre of globally recognised speakers and brand visionaries, One Fine Baby sets to provide visitors with an exclusive insider’s look into the world of retail and design, offering a hub of design activity and a place to hunt for the latest trends, connect with Australia’s most coveted brands and come up-close-and-personal with design and celebrity sweethearts within an intimate shopping environment.
