What is Thickland?

Thickland is more than just an event—it’s a movement dedicated to plus size appreciation and creating a space where beauty has no size limits. From wedding gowns to everyday fashion, financial empowerment to wellness, and gourmet food to self-care, Thickland showcases the best in plus size living.


With seven dynamic zones, live fashion shows, expert-led panels, interactive workshops, and a diverse exhibitor marketplace, this event is designed to uplift, inspire, and connect the plus size community.


“Welcome to Thickland” is the ultimate celebration of style, confidence, and curves — a one-of-a-kind experience where plus size fashion meets lifestyle, business, and empowerment.
