Home & Garden Show Nelson

The Nelson Home & Garden Show is an annual public fair that has become a major event for home and garden enthusiasts in New Zealand. Organized by Jade Promotions – a seasoned company renowned nationwide for professionally executed lifestyle exhibitions – the show offers a diverse platform to explore innovations, trends, and practical solutions related to living, building, and gardening.

The event takes place at Saxton Stadium in Nelson – a modern, easily accessible venue located in one of the country’s most scenic regions. Its central location, excellent infrastructure, and appealing surroundings make Nelson not only an ideal exhibition site but also a rewarding destination for a day trip or a weekend getaway.

The show covers a wide range of topics: from home building, renovation, and modernisation to garden and landscape design, interior styling, sustainability, and lifestyle. A particular highlight is the successful blend of local and national exhibitors who present their products and services in an open, welcoming atmosphere. Visitors benefit not only from the latest ideas and inspirations but also from direct interaction with tradespeople, industry experts, and manufacturers – a true “one-stop shop” for anyone looking to build, renovate, or refresh their home.

The focus is on solutions that offer real value: energy-efficient technologies, sustainable materials, innovative garden systems, and smart living concepts are featured alongside high-quality furniture, stylish decorations, and regional specialties. These topics aren’t just showcased – they’re brought to life through live demonstrations, expert talks, and hands-on activities, such as the “Resene Paint-a-Pot” event for children and the “Paint-a-Home” activity for adults. The program is further enhanced by exclusive show-only discounts and prize draws.

As part of a nationwide series of events held in other locations such as Wellington, Rotorua, Hawke’s Bay, Taranaki, and Marlborough, the show also contributes to the regional economy. Its open character, wide-ranging exhibits, and practical expertise make it appealing to a broad audience – from private homeowners and hobby gardeners to professional designers and planners.

The Nelson Home & Garden Show is much more than a traditional trade fair: it’s an inspiring experience for anyone who values quality, expert advice, and creative ideas – concrete, diverse, and perfectly tailored to the needs of modern home and garden owners.

The Home & Garden Show will take place on 3 days from Friday, 19. September to Sunday, 21. September 2025 in Nelson.
