In 2023 NHS will partner with NAHB International Builders’ Show® (IBS) and NKBA’s Kitchen & Bath Industry Show® (KBIS) at Design & Construction Week® at the Las Vegas Convention Center to offer even more buying, selling and networking opportunities to the Hardware and Home Improvement community. Use your NHS badge to enter any of the three shows.

IBS is produced by the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) which represents 140,000+ members and is the voice for housing policies to make housing a priority.
The National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA) is the not-for-profit trade association that owns the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show® (KBIS), as part of Design & Construction Week ® (DCW). KBIS, in conjunction with the National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA), is an inspiring, interactive platform that showcases the latest industry products, trends and technologies.

Relaunched in 2023 with a new vision, the NHS BACKYARD is the National Hardware Show’s dedicated home for all things lawn, garden, farm, ranch, outdoor living and grilling. There is truly no other event that fills the void for outdoor living quite like the National Hardware Show. Originally launched back in 2005, the National Hardware Show has always had a robust lawn and garden category to host a wide range of outdoor living suppliers. Now, to support the rapid growth of these categories, the Backyard is branching into its very own category to become the destination for everything outdoors at NHS.
