London Hat Week celebrates the art of hats in the city that is home to some of the best hat designers in the world.

We began our journey with a week of hat-centered events in 2014. Since then, our format has gone through several reimaginings and changes and our aim has always stayed the same – to encourage hat wearing, making, networking and learning and to champion the hat industry.

On 7 April 2024, we marked our 10th anniversary by introducing the first ever World Hat Walk. 21 cities and countless individuals around the world participated in an inspirational international showcase of global hat wearing.

We create space for all to express their creativity, from hat wearer to fashion student to professional milliner/hatter.
