SHOW VILLAGE is a unique experience. Located in the parking lot, directly adjacent to the International Builders’ Show in Orlando, throngs of homebuilders explore these showcase homes. There, you will see, interact with, and learn about installed products in action – the same products you saw in a booth in the show. There’s just nothing like it!
Last year, thousands of professional builders visited Show Village every day. Complete with live entertainment and refreshments, it was like a giant block party. This year, we anticipate even bigger crowds to view the three homes at Show Village.
