HIGH POINT – The High Point Market Authority (HPMA) is now accepting fall 2025 applications for its signature Design Influencers Tour, inviting interior designers and other design influencers to apply by Aug. 4.
Ten influencers will be chosen based on their digital content quality, posting frequency and blog or social media following. Compensation includes a service fee and stipend for travel accommodations.
In October, the selected influencers will take a guided, two-day discovery tour at High Point Market, and then each will use their digital platforms to chronicle emerging furnishings trends along with new products identified in sponsor-showrooms.

“Since 2015, the Design Influencers Tour has proven to be a valuable marketing platform for High Point Market exhibitors seeking to showcase new products and collections,” said Tammy Covington, HPMA president and CEO. “The evergreen social media content generated by our program’s tastemakers helps drive visibility for furnishings brands well beyond Market week.”
This season’s Design Influencers Tour, produced in partnership with Esteem Media, is set for Oct. 26-27. To be considered, the online application must be submitted by 11:59 p.m. ET on Aug. 4.
