Home and Cottage Expo Returns in 2025

The 2025 Home and Cottage Expo will be held at the Harry Lumley Bayshore Community Centre and JD McArthur Arena on Saturday, May 3, and Sunday, May 4, 2025, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Business registration is now open for the Expo, which is a collaborative partnership between the City of Owen Sound, the Knights of Columbus, and the Grey Bruce Home Builders Association. 

The event will showcase indoor exhibitors from across Ontario, including popular local businesses, interactive displays, local municipal building officials, and a dedicated green energy section. Additionally, a fenced outdoor area will feature outdoor vendors, home-based businesses, and a kid’s zone.

Attendees can connect with contractors, interior designers, landscapers, home improvement experts, outdoor recreation dealers, consumer electronics suppliers, and more—all in one convenient location. It's the ideal opportunity for residents and visitors to explore services for upcoming renovations and consult with building officials about necessary permits and plans.

A variety of booth spaces are available, including single, double, and triple options, as well as outdoor spaces. Expos attract a focused audience already interested in industry or products, providing a prime opportunity to engage directly with potential customers seeking services or goods. Booking a booth can significantly enhance a business’s visibility, lead generation, and overall success, making it a valuable investment in growth.
