INDX Beds returned to Cranmore Park at the end of April for its two-day 2026 event, with day one reserved for AIS Members and day two open to trade visitors. 

Offering attendees a carefully curated product selection and market leading brands across beds, sofa beds and bedroom furniture. Visitors were treated to a refreshing showcase with exciting new and returning brands including Mammoth, Millbrook Beds, Silent Night, Sealy, and Willis & Gambier.  

This season's bedroom trend was all about Nurture - where the boundaries between nature and the home merge, fostering a restful atmosphere that embraces the wonders of the natural world and delights in traditional craft skills. 
 
Buyers browsed handcrafted bed frames and headboards, natural materials and textures like tweed upholstery and raffia detailing, in calm and earthy colour palettes, and lighter wood tones in bedroom furniture pieces that bring the outside in.  

The Networking Social events had special significance this year as hosts, Associated Independent Stores celebrate their 50th anniversary; with visitors and exhibitors invited for an informal catch-up to celebrate the industry.

Two stylish beds displayed in a showroom. The left bed features a plush white mattress with decorative pillows, accompanied by a round lamp and a globe on a side table. The right bed has a sleek brown leather headboard and is adorned with a warm-toned throw and decorative pillows, set against a dark wall.

Tried and tested  

Don’t just take our word for it … 

I thought the whole experience from start to finish was fantastic, such a great vibe and professionalism throughout the 2 days.

The whole team on and off site supported us from day 1 and I firmly believe this shone through in the presentation – a real collaboration between AIS and Deepsleep Beds.

Looking forward to working together and developing the brands to support your members and grow our presence in store.

It was a real pleasure to welcome so many to the INDX Beds Show 2026 and to see such strong engagement throughout. From new exhibitors building valuable connections with Members to the continued support for long-established suppliers, the show reflected the strength and collaboration across the industry.
