The 2022 Calgary Home and Garden Show — Feb. 24 to 27 at the BMO Centre — will have 250 exhibitors showcasing new products, services and ideas. Most will be demonstrating their wares and offering significant price incentives. It will be an opportunity to talk to the business owners themselves, all of whom have been vetted by show organizers.

Here are a few local enterprises who will be dispensing advice at the Home and Garden Show.

Bathroom Renovators

Pearl Sinks

Pearl is a premier manufacturer and distributor of designer sinks, faucets and household fixtures. When Pearl took park in the 2020 Calgary Home and Garden show, show organizers named them Rookie of the Year.

“We’re anticipating a great show again this year,” says Karina Pelayo, Pearl director of customer experience. “We hope people will come see our new 2022 products and enter the draw for one of our designer faucets.”

Other must-see items will be induction ranges, high-end dishwashers and a new one-piece washer/dryer combo from Electrolux.

World of Spas

A swim spa offers the best of both worlds; the fun and exercise of a backyard pool and the relaxation of an outdoor hot tub. A continuous current allows the user to swim “laps” in one place. World of Spas will have an operational 15-foot swim spa at their Home and Garden show display and will offer special home show pricing. Featured hot tubs and spas will be in stock and available for delivery, ready for installation on a deck or in the backyard.

Iron Crow Antiques and Objects of Intrigue

The owner of Iron Crow, Terry Dixon, is combing through her Calgary store to find the most unusual pieces she can find for her Home and Garden Show display. Items like oversized doors from Europe, a rustic wooden wagon wheel, plus chandeliers, candle sticks and other statement pieces that are more than just old — they’re pieces of art.

“This will not be a typical antique display. We have pieces that no one else has. Our store is like that — very untraditional, design pieces,” she says. Items on display will be available for purchase after the show.
