The St. Louis 36th Annual Builders Home & Garden Show returns to America’s Center February 21st – 24th. One of the largest quality consumer home shows in North America, the Home & Garden Show is the place to see, learn about and buy the latest home products and services from companies you can trust. The show is produced by the Home Builders Association.
The Home & Garden Show is actually six shows in one, showcasing the latest in Lawn & Garden, Kitchen & Bath, Interior Design, Pool & Spa, Building Products, and Green Products. Five hundred exhibitors in 1,800 booths fill nearly 400,000 square feet and provide consumers with an excellent buying opportunity, competitive pricing and side-by-side comparison between companies.
Welcome spring as you stroll through six beautiful feature gardens filled with fabulous flowers, water features and the newest ideas for your garden. And don’t miss the centerpiece of the feature garden area – the Amazing Living Fountain, a mesmerizing entertainment experience! Haunting music begins, and with magical elegance, a statue of a beautiful woman animates into a living fountain. Delicate jets of water appear from her fingertips and a shimmering halo cascades from the crown of her head in this beautifully choreographed display.
