NAHB International Builders' Show (IBS)
NAHB International Builders' Show (IBS) 2027 is North America's largest annual residential construction trade show, held from February 2–4, 2027, at the Las Vegas Convention Center, Las Vegas, United States. Organized by the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB), the event is described by the organizer as a premier, once-a-year gathering that connects, educates, and aims to improve the residential construction industry. The Builders’ Show has been bringing the industry together for over 80 years, serving as a gathering place for residential construction professionals across the country. It is relevant for professional remodelers, for example, during National Remodeling Month.
For IBS 2027, projections anticipate approximately 75,000 building professionals and over 27,000 organizations will attend. The event is also expected to host more than 1,600 exhibitors, who present their products to the industry audience.
The IBS registration grants access to the show floor of the NKBA Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS), which runs concurrently. The 2026 event included DCW Opening Ceremonies.
IBS education is a central component of the event. An NAHB | IBS Education Webinar Series is available, featuring past and future speakers from the show. These webinars offer timely, practical conversations designed for residential construction professionals to sharpen skills, strengthen businesses, and navigate market changes. Education On-Demand session recordings are also available for specific registrants. For the 2026 event, an Expo+Education Pass included three-day access to over 120 education sessions, as well as three-day entry to the IBS and KBIS exhibit floors and IBS Centrals. This pass also provided access to an online library of recorded sessions after the 2026 show.
Based on the 2026 schedule, the event includes a range of activities beyond the main exhibits. These included Pre-Show NAHB Courses and a Building Science Symposium. During the main show days for 2026, IBS Centrals, an IBS Store powered by NAHB BuilderBooks, and Outdoor Exhibits were accessible. NAHB-specific events were also part of the 2026 program, such as the NAHB Meeting of the Members & Leadership Council Meeting and the NAHB Board of Directors Meeting, with some events restricted to NAHB members, their spouses, and employees of member companies. Social events for 2026 included an IBS House Party, an IBS Young Pro Party, and an IBS Closing Concert. The event also recognizes "Best of IBS Winners," with the 2026 winners viewable. Specific zones for exploration are indicated for IBS 2027.
