BEPHILA 2026 is more than a Bilateral Competitive Exhibition!
The organising team has already been asked several times by collectors who are not members of the BDPh or the Swedish Federation SFF whether they too can take part in the exhibition. The clear answer to this question is: YES!!
In accordance with the show regulations, members of other FIP member associations can also participate in BEPHILA 2026, subject to the show management’s approval. However, only Swedish exhibitors will have a commissioner at their disposal. Interested parties from other countries are required to register in person with the German show organiser without a commissioner. The required application form can be found on the exhibition website.
We’ve received the following announcement from the PTS and Stampex:
Every year, we print thousands of postcards to give out FREE to visitors at Stampex in London. This year, we are giving you the chance to design the front of our postcard! You can use any tools you like – from digital art tools to real life paint brushes, pencils, or decoupage! Your name will be featured on the back of every postcard printed and we’ll celebrate your design across our social media channels and Newsletters. You’ll also receive 25 copies of your postcard for you to send to friends and family!
What would your perfect postcard design be? Judges will be looking for: originality, creativity, a link to philately/ postal history, and a design that inspires collectors to want to send the postcard!
In his greetings in Bulletin 2, Ulf Nilsson, President of the Organizing Committee, welcomes us to NORDIA 2025 assuring us that “preparations are proceeding very well thanks to our well-established team.” He goes on to say that the highlights of the exhibition include:
Exlusive items from members of the Club de Monte-Carlo.
Rare collections of postcards from Malmö and Limhamn.
Items from the famous Ferrari collection, which will complement a lecture by Wolfgang Maassen.
A special exhibit by the Svensk Posthistorisk Dokumentation (SSPD).
Visitors will be delighted to admire 700 frames of exhibits, visit 25 dealer stands, participate in various events, and enjoy food and drinks at the restaurant.
The exhibition will be held at the MalmöMässan Convention Centre in Malmö, Sweden, from 12 to 14 September. It is organised by the SFF (Swedish Philatelic Federation) and SFU (Philatelic Youth of Sweden). NORDIA 2025 has received recognition from the Federation of European Philatelic Associations (FEPA). The main commercial partner is Postiljonen.
