Home Builders Association of Greater Kansas City Cancels 2020 Home & Lifestyle Show

The Home Builders Association of Greater Kansas City takes great pride in conducting safe community events like the upcoming Greater Kansas City Home Show originally scheduled to take place at the Kansas City Convention Center starting tomorrow, March 13 running through Sunday, March 15. In light of the State of Emergency declaration made by Kansas City, Mo., Mayor Quinton Lucas on March 12, the Home & Lifestyle Show has been cancelled.

“This is a challenging time for our community,” said Will Ruder, Executive Vice President of the HBA. “As an organization devoted to improving the quality of life in the communities we serve, we feel that it is important to take responsibility during this time of uncertainty by respecting the direction provided by our national, state, and local leadership designed to keep our fellow Kansas City metro residents safe.”

We appreciate your understanding and we will be determining a path forward in the coming days.

We encourage all of our attendees to take care of their own health and protect their fellow Kansas Citians by utilizing these valuable sources of information:
