If you’ve never been to one of the Southern AZ Fall Home Shows, here’s what to expect:

A marketplace for home-related products and services that allows folks to shop, compare, and save while gaining new ideas and practical advice in home improvement, interior design, and outdoor living. With everything from kitchens and baths to flooring, décor, and more, there’s something for projects in every home area.

“Home improvement is a top priority for most homeowners, and the Southern AZ Home Show gives them a single, convenient source for inspiration and consultation with the area’s top professionals about their ideas and home projects,” said Dave Maughan, Show Manager.

New to the Southern AZ Fall Home Show is the Culinary Showcase Stage!

Presented by Workman Company, audience members can watch local experts perform live cooking demonstrations and have the opportunity to taste freshly prepared samples.
