About the Show
The West Coast Small Home Expo is about connecting small space dwellers to vendors who can provide products and services that make small homes look beautiful, feel spacious, operate efficiently and contribute to a greener environment.
Whether fueled by economic, social or environmental reasons, the trend to live in smaller spaces continues to grow. Millennials are buying or renting their first home, Baby Boomers are downsizing, and the interest in purchasing a Tiny Home has become a huge movement, especially throughout the West Coast. The payoff for going smaller is economic freedom and lifestyle improvements. As we continue to see this trend grow, the demand for products and services for small space dwellings will skyrocket.
Exhibitor Showcase
Over 60,000 square feet of exhibit space, 100+ booths and 12+ tiny homes in the tiny homes village. Other special features include our Art in Small Spaces display, as well as LOCAL makers from all over the Lower Mainland.
Quality Speaker Program
We’re lucky to have the best in the areas of interior design, home construction, storage and lifestyle, life with pets and kids, and so many other current issues affecting housing in BC.
A Festival Atmosphere
Attendees will be entertained with music, entertainment and food trucks!

Who attends the Small Home Expo?
Downsizers, Condo/Townhome Dwellers, and Tiny House Enthusiasts
Downsizers formed our biggest demographic at our original show. But this was followed closely by those who are first time buyers or builders. We know that both these demographics have grown substantially in the last 24 months.
Remodelers and redecorators
Attendees prioritized kitchen and bath, major furniture, lighting, small space gardening, flooring and window coverings, electronics, and paint and finishings.
Who Exhibits?
Our combination of home product and service providers fall into a few main categories.
Why Exhibit?
Connect With New, Motivated Customers
Nearly 6,000 small space enthusiasts attended the inaugural show in 2019. This will only get bigger! Capture motivated buyers who are looking for products and services to buy for their small space.
What about attendees?
How is the small Home Expo Marketed?
Our very first year, in 2019, we succeeded in attracting nearly 6000 attendees. Since that time, the housing market has become even more intense. We market the Westcoast Small Home Expo much the same way we market all of our other shows: using a combination of social media posts and paid advertising, paid web advertising, conventional print advertising, marketing at other events, signage, and marketing through our Exhibitors. We are heavily invested in online methods of advertising because we know where our dollars go, and what part of our marketing is working.
We’re very interested in working with each of our Exhibitors on a 1:1 basis to form creative partnerships, and exploring all sorts of fresh ideas. If you’ve got an idea, reach out to our Marketing Manager, Peggy Richardson.
Your investment includes much more than a booth.
Our philosophy of “Beyond the Booth” means that we want to form partnerships with our Exhibitors that help them market their businesses year-round. (We do this for our other events, the Fraser Valley Wedding Festivals, too.) This means things like finding ways to cross over other marketing, social media mentions, and plain, old-fashioned referrals that happen literally every day.
