You may have heard that we have a pretty big event coming up this weekend at the Bismarck Event Center.

The Bismarck-Mandan Homebuilders Association (BMHBA) is hosting 48th annual Bismarck-Mandan Home Show this weekend (Friday, March 28th and Saturday March 29th).

If you've never been, here are a few reasons why you should check it out this year (2025).

1. Face-to-Face With The Vendors

Remodeling, landscaping, or building--whatever you're looking to do, this is a great opportunity for you to meet with the businesses and people who can help make all of it happen for you.

You can, of course, look up the vendors online or call for information, but at the Home Show, you have the opportunity to meet with the vendors and have a one-on-one. Whatever questions you may have, you can address in person. You can also touch and buy your products on the spot too.

2. Kid Zone

Can't find a sitter? Bring the kids! The Home Show has the New Construction Zone (Kids Zone) brought to you by Knife River.

You can have fun dreaming up and planning your bathroom remodel all while your kids have the time of their lives playing in their own designated area. #FamilyOutingFTW

3. Prizes

We'd be crazy not to mention that you can win some amazing prizes. According to the BisMan Home Show website, you can win four prizes valued at $2,500 --a total of 10k in prizes.

1-year maintenance plan from Fix it All?

Home insulation from Cullen Insulation?

A year-round holiday lighting system from Pro Light?

Custom closets from Custom Closets of Bismarck?

--those all sound amazing to me. Make sure you enter in their $10k Giveaway.

4. Beer Please

After you get done planning out your next home-building/renovation moves, you can stop for a well-deserved break in the beer garden. Beer + Building = fun AND productive times.

Go around to all of the vendors then stop in the beer garden/bar social area and grab some drinks and snacks.

5. Fun Theme

This year, the BMHBA Home Show has a special theme: "Everything at the Lake"

If you're itching for a little time on the lake or river, this theme will put you in the right mindset.

Those are just a few of the reasons you should go to the Bismarck-Mandan Home Show, but there are so many more. If you want more information on event, check out the website.
