There will be exciting changes to The Inspired Home Show in 2024. The IHA board of directors has listened closely to the needs of the industry and has made several changes to create the most productive experience possible.

The Show will be three full days, Sunday through Tuesday, and the three main expos―Dine + Décor, Clean + Contain, and Wired + Well―will be located within the two main halls of McCormick Place. This new format will create a trade show experience that is more productive, highly efficient and tremendously successful for the industry.

The Inspired Home Show lives up to its name by offering not only inspiring products in exhibitors’ booths but also through displays and educational offerings. Some of the Show’s unique activations to assist with product discovery include:

• Pantone ColorWatch Display―special exhibit by Pantone focusing on colour palettes representing the strongest home furnishings trends for 2024/25. Each story includes the individual Pantone colours, philosophy behind the colour palette and actual Show products illustrating each palette.

• The IHA Smart Home pavilion featuring curated exhibitors of smart home brands and connected products for the different areas of the home.

• Inventor’s Corner―a pavilion of 60 inventors showcasing their freshest product creations. Speak to the inventors themselves and see them pitch shark-tank-style to a panel of professionals in the Inventors Revue.

• gia Product Design Display―exhibitors’ latest creations and cutting-edge innovations with award recognition, recognising five finalists in 14 product categories.
