Madrid's Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week will take place from September 7 to 19 in a revamped format following the decision to change venues. For the first time since its inception, the event will not be held at Ifema due to a clash with the Formula 1 Grand Prix, which will take place in Madrid during the same dates.

According to various sources, the event's schedule will feature 60 designers showcasing their work at iconic locations across the city, including Cibeles and the Communication and Arts campus of Universidad de Nebrija. This change has become necessary to accommodate both events in the Spanish capital.

The situation has resulted in a new layout for Fashion Week, adjusting to the new venues and allowing the city to function as an open-air runway, providing a distinct experience for both designers and attendees.
