The Philly Home + Garden Show is next week, and over its three-day run, there will be plenty of reasons to stop by — hundreds of reasons, in fact.
From Friday, Feb. 21 to Sunday, Feb. 23, Philadelphians with a green thumb and a knack for home goods will be able to peruse over 300 exhibitors ranging from home décor and furniture; garden and landscaping; kitchen and bath; plus food and beverage.
Every year, the exhibition also highlights keynote speakers, with Bravo personality Craig Conover (co-founder of Sewing Down South) and former child actor Christopher Knight (owner of Christopher Knight Home) on-site at the venue. Conover will be presenting on Friday, Feb. 21, at 6 p.m. and Saturday, Feb. 22, at 1 p.m., while Knight will take the stage on Saturday, Feb. 22, at 11 a.m. and Sunday, Feb. 23 at 1 p.m.
Licensed contractor and host of DIY Network’s ‘Stone House Revival’ Jeff Devlin will also be onsite with a design feature that highlights his custom woodworking company (which focuses on historic methods of building) on Saturday, Feb. 22, at 3 p.m. and Sunday, Feb. 23, at 2 p.m.
Other highlights for the Philly Home + Garden Show span the Step Into Spring section featuring five of the region’s top landscapers creating an 8,000 sq. ft. section of outdoor inspiration and activities, and the Philly’s Favorites Market which boasts an open market-style area with local artisans and retailers. While there, Philadelphians can shop antiques, finely crafted items, specialty foods, and original art.
The DIY Succulent and Terrarium Bar + Shop will feature some of the most unique décor and gift items to spruce up your yard, plus Philadelphians can customize their own terrarium. The Pop-Up Flower Market, on the other hand, will house favorites from Cameron Peters Floral Design.
Then there’s the Barking Lot + Doggy Fashion Show— a fan favorite that also provides some good. While our furry friends strut their stuff in the fashion show on Saturday and Sunday, a portion of sales from this pet market filled with the most popular treats and accessories benefits the PSPCA directly.
Other highlights for the 2025 Philly Home + Garden Show include the “Ask a Garden Expert” booth in the Garden Hall and the Make It, Take It Workshops where you can craft something special for your home for free.
Those who are looking to imbibe can also stop by Renegade Winery in the garden hall or by the stage to sample wines from this urban winery and pick up a few bottles to take home. The Spirited Backyard presented by Hazard’s Distillery and Rental-World on the other hand will feature local whiskey tastings and activities like cornhole, carnival games, mini golf, and more.
The Show also offers participants a few ways to give back through a Red Cross Blood Drive and The Reach Out and Read program sponsored By Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. With the latter, visitors are encouraged to donate a new book to the Reach Out and Read program at CHOP. As a release notes, in exchange for your donation, you’ll receive $2 off tickets at the box office.
Finally, there will also be a designated Hero Day to honor our local heroes on Sunday, and all active and retired military, first responders, nurses, doctors and teachers will get free admission upon identification. Senior Day on the other hand is set for Friday, and guests that are 60+ (with a valid ID) will receive 50% off at the box office.
The Philly Home and Garden Show hours are Friday, Feb. 21, from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.; Saturday, Feb. 22, from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.; and Sunday, Feb. 23, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Admission is $12 for adults ($10 in advance until Feb. 20), and free for children under age 12.
