Kingpins announced on Wednesday that it will cancel the Miami edition of its denim boutique trade show due to lack of attendance. The event was scheduled to take place January 11 and 12, 2017.
 

"It's really an unfortunate situation for us to cancel the show, but it would be more unfortunate for us to go and not have a full house," says Andrew Olah, founder of the Kingpins Show, in a news statement. "We are not finished in our intent on Latin America, but it seems our dates were unsuitable and we have no problem to admit our misunderstanding."
 
This was set to be the first time Kingpins would host in Miami, as it decided to broaden its scope to focus on the Latin American market.

Kingpins Show holds bi-annual shows in New York and Amsterdam, and annual shows in Hong Kong and China. These events will not be affected by the cancellation.

The first 2017 Kingpins Show will kick off in Amsterdam on April 19.
