Suddenly it's Spring! The 31st annual Duquesne Light Pittsburgh Home & Garden Show, March 2 - 11 at the Pittsburgh Convention Center Downtown, will present more than 1500 exhibits covering over 9 acres. During those ten days in March, hundreds of thousands of homeowners from across the tri-state will shop the region's most trusted marketplace, the largest home event in Pennsylvania.

John DeSantis, Executive Director of the Show, noted "Spring is just around the corner, and once again we've gathered everything for the home and garden in one place, at one time. Area homeowners know that this is the place to get ideas, to shop and compare, and to see what's new for their home. It's also the place to find the best products and services, the best expert advice, and the best prices."

The life journey of the beloved princess - mother, fashion icon, and humanitarian - is told through a carefully crafted presentation of her personal possessions, including a sampling of the royal dresses Diana chose to auction for charity. This professionally curated exhibit, in Pittsburgh for ten days only, features film, photos, personal objects, and panels explaining Diana's journey from childhood to Royal Princess to Global Humanitarian.

It may be a renovated bath, exterior remodeling, a new garage door, modifications for accessibility, or even alternative energy solar panels - one lucky visitor to the Home & Garden Show will win $50,000. worth of these improvements for their home!

Cutting edge technology meets culinary flair in this spectacular concept kitchen. Show visitors will stroll into a stunning collection of the latest kitchen appliances - multiple cooktops, ovens, refrigerators and more - all powered and operating. Popular local chefs provide tips and tastings, while putting all of this new equipment to the test. Much more than simply seeing the next level in kitchens, visitors will experience how these new devices work - and taste the results!

Homeowners in Western Pennsylvania have always been avid gardeners, whether they are tending a tiny backyard or a swath of rolling countryside. New at the 2012 Home & Garden Show is one central area where everyone from beginner to Master Gardener will find the answers, help, and advice that they need. Created by the horticultural programs at Bidwell Center, and drawing together garden and plant societies from across the region, this is the one-stop solution to every garden question.

It's August, and the kids are playing hockey on the ice rink in the back yard. That expanse of white ice doesn't melt a drop, because it's made of durable plastics instead of water. Show visitors of all ages are encouraged to lace up their ice skates , glide out onto our 2,000 square foot surface, and see for themselves that synthetic ice is just like the real thing - all year round!
