About Makeup Shows
Makeup shows bring together bridal and beauty artists, film and television makeup teams, permanent makeup specialists and the brands that create the products they love. Expect live demonstrations from leading artists, masterclasses, competitions and stands full of new launches to try.
New York and Los Angeles are the heart of the 2027 makeup calendar. The MUAHS Guild Awards honour film and television artists in Los Angeles in February, and MakeUp in Los Angeles covers product development and suppliers the same month. In New York, The Makeup Show iArtist and The Makeup Show NYC run back to back at the turn of April and May, and MakeUp in NewYork returns to the Javits Center in September. Europe has Cosmoprof Worldwide Bologna in March, BEAUTY DUSSELDORF in April and Estetika in Brussels in September, while the UK has Queen's Night in Coventry in October. Further afield you will find Beautyworld Middle East in Dubai, BeautyIstanbul, Cosmoprof CBE ASEAN in Bangkok and Beauty Fair in São Paulo.

How the makeup year unfolds
February is a busy month in Los Angeles, spring brings the New York shows and the big European fairs, and September and October are strong for Brussels, New York and the UK. Many artists combine one artist focused show with one large trade fair.
Choosing your show
- For artistry: The Makeup Show NYC and The Makeup Show iArtist focus on education and demonstrations from working artists.
- For film and television: the MUAHS Guild Awards and the WorldSkills UK SFX Makeup for Film and TV final celebrate screen work.
- For brands and product development: MakeUp in Los Angeles and MakeUp in NewYork serve the people creating new cosmetics.
- For permanent makeup: the SPCP Convention, Next Level PMU and the UK PMU Conference cover brows, lips and eyeliner.
Travelling to a makeup show
If you are taking part in a masterclass or competition, check what kit you need and how liquids should be packed for your flight. Book hotels early for the New York shows, as spring is a busy time in the city.
