From the Producers of the Colorado Fall Home Show
Fifty years after the creation of the Rocky Mountain region’s largest and most successful consumer show, the producers of the Colorado Fall Home Show are launching a new fall consumer home show debuting September 19 & 20, 2009 at the Colorado Convention Center.
Occupying 200,000 sq. ft. of the Convention Center, the focus of the new show is to “sustain, renew and inspire.” Special emphasis will be made on the products, services and practices of green lifestyles and sustainable living.
The show, in addition to being an excellent marketplace for the attendees, will feature a sustainable living pavilion packed with the latest environmentally friendly ideas and two theaters featuring those topics along with other home improvement experts.
The timing of the Colorado Fall Home Show, taking place seven months after the Colorado Garden & Home Show, provides the perfect “bookend” event, giving exhibitors and attendees the opportunity to connect on fall, holiday and early winter home improvement projects.
Utilizing the resources of the Colorado Garden & Home Show including exhibitor and attendee databases, plus an aggressive marketing investment coupled with blue chip media partnerships, the two-day show is anticipated to feature 300 exhibitors and draw 10,000 people.
