The 9th Edition of the Wood Design Show (WDS), Oct. 9-10, promises to deliver new and exciting features.
WDS, a leading design, architecture, woodworking, and manufacturing tradeshow produced by Design Spec Rep (DSR), is pleased to announce that its 9th edition will be held in Montréal at the Palais des congrès de Montréal. Created to cater to designers, architects, and woodworkers seeking an event dedicated to interior design materials, this must-attend tradeshow offers unique seminars, educational presentations, and industry leading exhibitors. Conference speakers, exhibitors, and attendees include the who’s who of the industry.
The 2024 edition features an expanded show floor space with three conference stages, multiple lounges and will see the return of its VIP networking cocktail on Oct. 9, and include the addition of a closing event cocktail on Oct. 10. New this year is bus transportation that is being offered to attendees from regions outside of the greater Montréal area including Québec City, Ottawa, and Trois-Rivières.
“This year’s show will feature nearly 80,000 sq. ft. of floor space, over 50 exhibitors, and three conference stages, including one with conferences produced in collaboration with INDEX-DESIGN, leaders in Québec’s design community,” says Johanne Munger, director and events manager at Design Spec Rep.
“This edition promises to surpass the expectations of show attendees, which include architects, designers, cabinetmakers, woodworkers, manufacturers, key associations, and other industry professionals. The WDS is THE tradeshow to network with clients, prospects, and suppliers all under one roof.”
Exhibitors
