The 8th edition of Bubble New York is taking place at a new venue. “The Kids Trade Show” takes place at Cedar Lake, 547 West 26th Street, between 10th and 11th Avenues in the Chelsea District of New York City.

Which is huge, since part of the cache of Bubble is the inviting, creative atmosphere of the show – for children’s wear companies and buyers alike.

No worries, though – this venue is the home of Cedar Lake Contemporary Ballet. Karl Lagerfeld held his first and only New York season there. It’s also been host to other fashion events, awards shows, private parties and more.

Spring/Summer 2010 fashions for children are on display August 2 and 3 from 9:30am to 6pm, and August 4 from 9:30am – 4pm.
