It’s really three shows in one. Travel, sport, and home all come together under one roof at the South Shore Expo at the Lunenburg County Lifestyle Centre this weekend.

I’ve gone every year and it’s always a ton of fun. You can wander at your own pace, chat with local businesses, discover new ideas, and walk away with inspiration you didn’t even know you were looking for. Whether you’re planning a trip, tackling a home project, or just browsing what’s new and local, there really is something for everyone. There are also some great food and drink vendors to check out along the way.

If you’re looking for an easy and interesting way to spend part of your weekend, the South Shore Expo is well worth a visit. It starts Friday night and runs through Sunday.

This year, Friday night is BOGO night, which means when you buy admission for one, you get another ticket free.

I also had a chance to speak with Courtney from Dawn Event Group about the upcoming show and what people can expect.
