The largest exhibition of its kind in the Maritimes, the Spring Ideal Home Show brings together some of the top players in Nova Scotia’s construction and renovation industries. The result is a fantastic showcase of indoor and outdoor living where you can find inspiration for your own home and garden. This year, the show will be running from Friday, March 27th to Sunday, March 29th, offering a weekend full of different features and events.

There is always a wide range of exhibitors at the show who can help you with everything from small home maintenance projects to large-scale home renovations. Whether you are looking to do a bathroom or a kitchen remodel, or even an entirely new construction project, you are sure to find experienced industry professionals who can help you get started. Numerous deals are struck every year on the show floor.

The Spring Ideal Home Show also partners with Landscape Nova Scotia to put on the Garden & Patio Show. This is a must-see if you are thinking of undertaking a landscaping project in the months ahead. The outdoor inspiration display will give you some ideas for your own project, and there will be a variety of designers, contractors, and landscaping professionals present to provide you with pointers and information.

Of course, it’s not all about making deals. The show features a variety of informative seminars where homeowners can learn about the latest in home design and innovation. You can also view the full-sized show homes and take note of features and elements that you might like to incorporate in your own bedrooms and living spaces. Family-friendly activities will be available as well, like a photo booth with some of your kids’ favourite cartoon characters. Make sure you also enter to win the door prize when you arrive and keep your eye out for exhibitors offering a chance to win other prizes and giveaways.
