The Inspired Home Show 2027 in Chicago will feature a reimagined floor designed to deliver what IHA described as a “dynamic, discovery-driven and engaging experience for buyers and sellers.” The show’s core categories – Clean + Contain, Dine + Décor and Wired + Well – will be united in McCormick Place’s South Hall in a move to encourage cross-category exploration, according to IHA. The North Hall will become a dedicated destination for global manufacturing and sourcing.
The new configuration will create several destinations on the Show floor, including:
- The Innovation District, which will bring together the show’s Inventors Corner, gia Student Design Winners and Education Programming.
- The Discovery Park will transform the Debut Incubator, Candle Pavilion, Pet Products Pavilion, and SPLiCE Licensing Hub into a park-inspired area focused on new business opportunities.
The Show floor will also feature popular attractions, including the Pantone ColorWatch Display, Buyers Club/New Product Showcase, the New Exhibitor Showcase & Lounge, gia Retail Display & Lounge, Business Center, and a café, offering space for discovery and networking.
“In today’s highly competitive landscape, The Inspired Home Show 2027 will offer buyers and sellers a crucial opportunity to get a leg up on the latest trends and opportunities,” said IHA Board Chairman Tom McMahon, who also serves as president of Jura Inc. “It’s also one of the few North American events where brands can connect face-to-face with the industry’s most influential buyers while gaining valuable media and promotional exposure.”
IHA said consumer media coverage, social media promotion, and creator commerce will be a key focus at The Inspired Home Show 2027. IHA reported that the 2026 show generated more than 645 million media impressions from nearly 200 print, broadcast, digital, and social media professionals. Journalists in attendance represented outlets such as The New York Times/Wirecutter, News Nation, Yahoo, Lifehacker, BuzzFeed, Real Simple, CNN Underscored, Forbes, Good Housekeeping, Food Network Magazine, HGTV Magazine, Apartment Therapy, The Kitchn, and Wired.
The planned co-location of The Inspired Show with Winter Atlanta Market beginning in January 2028 will, for the first time in its history, bring The Inspired Home Show into a permanent, cross-category marketplace model, adding year-round showrooms to its trade show presence, IHA noted.
The final Chicago show in March 2027 will celebrate the industry’s legacy and impact in the city, IHA said. Since 1938, Chicago has been a premier destination for the industry to gather and grow, starting at the Palmer House Hotel, then moving to the International Amphitheater, Navy Pier, and McCormick Place.
