The International Housewares Association (IHA) and ANDMORE have announced an eight-year partnership that will bring The Inspired Home Show to AmericasMart Atlanta, co-located with Winter Atlanta Market, beginning in January 2028. 

The move will establish The Inspired Home Show within a permanent, cross-category marketplace model for the first time in its history, adding year-round showrooms to its trade show presence and growing AmericasMart’s dedicated housewares and tabletop footprint tenfold. 

For more than 80 years, The Inspired Home Show has been one of the largest trade shows in its category, drawing more than 10,000 retailers and industry professionals and 1,000-plusexhibitors to Chicago every March. 

Now, the Show will operate from dedicated neighbourhoods across AmericasMart’s campus, split evenly between showrooms and trade show space, and placed alongside complementary categories to enable cross-category sourcing.

Taking place alongside Winter Atlanta Market, AmericasMart’s premier gift and home show, the event will give buyers access to The Inspired Home Show’s exhibitors and the existing 6,000-plus complementary gift and home brands in a single trip. 

Derek Miller, President & CEO of International Housewares Association, said: “This is the next chapter for our Show, which has always been about connection, bringing the industry together to discover products, build partnerships, and grow businesses. Atlanta gives us a platform to do that in a whole new way, together creating the biggest sourcing marketplace for the industry. We’re proud to build this next chapter with a partner who shares our commitment to the people who make this community so special.”

Amory Wooden, EVP and Chief Revenue Officer of ANDMORE, added: “We’re grateful for IHA’s trust in choosing ANDMORE and AmericasMart for The Inspired Home Show’s next chapter. This partnership dramatically expands our housewares and tabletop offerings, giving buyers even more reason to source across categories in one trip. And it signals that the permanent, cross-category marketplace model has true staying power in our industry.”

The Inspired Home Show’s final Chicago show will take place from March 9-11, 2027, ahead of its Atlanta debut at Winter Atlanta Market from January 11-16, 2028.
