Swim Collective Moves Launch Location

Swim Collective, the West Coast swim trade show and runway event set to bow in August, has a new location.

The show is set to run Aug. 2–3 at the Balboa Bay Club and Resort in Newport Beach, Calif. The debut event was initially scheduled to be held at the Hilton Waterfront Beach Resort in Huntington Beach, Calif., where its sister event, The SoCal Rep Show, debuted in January.

Both shows are produced by the California Swimwear Association. The SoCal Rep Show is a regional show for swimwear reps, while the Swim Collective will be a premium swimwear trade show with a concurrent series of runway shows.
