Young models preparing for this year’s event
Organisers of the Kids Fashion Festival 2026 have announced that this year’s edition will focus on autism awareness and support for Ghana’s Black Stars.
The event is scheduled for Saturday, June 27, 2026, at the Mikaddo Conference Centre, starting at 5 p.m.
According to the organisers, one of the festival’s highlights will be the participation of children with autism on the runway. The initiative is aimed at creating awareness about autism and helping to fight the stigma often associated with the condition.
“This year’s edition is special because we have some children with autism walking on the runway. We want to create awareness and encourage society to embrace and support children living with autism,” the organisers said.
The festival will also feature a sports-themed segment where all participating children will walk the runway wearing Ghana Black Stars jerseys. The segment is intended to show support for the national team as they take on Croatia in their third match of the 2026 FIFA World Cup on the same day.
Several established and emerging fashion designers are expected to showcase their latest collections during the event. Designers billed for the festival include Allan David Collections, Nallem Clothing, ASAK Collections, Stitched By Visam, TIMI, Reenadel Couture, Abrantie College, SheMar Couture, Little Miss By Vester and others.
The Kids Fashion Festival 2026 is proudly powered by Exopa Model and Agency in collaboration with Merqury Republic, with support from GC Brand and Abrantie College.
Organisers say the event will celebrate fashion, creativity, inclusion and national pride while providing a platform for young talents to shine.
