Things to Do in Fort Lauderdale This Weekend

The biggest thing on the calendar is the Fort Lauderdale Home Show — September 4–7 at the Broward County Convention Center. Four days, hundreds of home brands, live demos, and Carson Kressley on the Home Design Stage. It’s all indoors and air-conditioned, so the weather doesn’t get a vote.

What’s on: the Fort Lauderdale Home Show

South Florida’s largest home design and remodeling expo takes over the Broward County Convention Center for Labor Day weekend. Walk the floor for kitchens, baths, outdoor living, impact windows, flooring, smart home and decor — talk to the people who actually do the work, and see it all in one afternoon instead of chasing ten quotes.

Friday, Sept 4 12–8pm Opening day
Saturday, Sept 5 12–8pm Busiest day
Sunday, Sept 6 12–8pm Family day
Monday, Sept 7 12–6:30pm Labor Day · final day

Broward County Convention Center · 1950 Eisenhower Blvd, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33316

Why it’s an easy call

Indoors and air-conditioned

September in South Florida does what it does. The entire show is inside the convention center, so heat or an afternoon downpour doesn’t end the day.

Kids are $1

Kids 4–12 get in for a dollar and seniors 65+ are $12, which makes it a cheap few hours out for the whole family rather than a big production.

Carson Kressley, live

The Queer Eye and Get a Room host is on the Home Design Stage over the weekend — included with admission, no separate ticket.

Easy to get to and park

On-site covered parking and the Northport garage are both steps from the main entrance, right off 17th Street on Eisenhower Blvd.
