The networking, collaboration and meeting key industry people is inspiring and energising! This is a fun show to do! Essentially, builders who can be physically spoken to and show their products at an Expo - build trustworthy, legitimate brands in the industry.
Solar, off grid, water, finance, furniture, peripheral products, toilets, innovative products, eco products, sustainable products, workshops and courses, and information products, are particularly welcome at the Expos to help us de-mystify this amazing marketplace.
We love market vendors who can bring some interesting stalls to the Expo, please use the contact us form for more information. Remember to tell us WHICH expo, and a little about your product. FOOD VENDOR INFO HERE
Marketing at Expo's is a proven, tried, and tested form of sales and connecting with your marketplace. Our #1 feedback from exhibitors is about meeting others in the industry and networking. This has strengthened the Tiny house industry incredibly and is a huge resource to those entering the marketplace.
It also leans towards ADVOCACY - being part of an industry that is looking for change and acceptance with local councils and legislative authorities.
By joining your Industry Expo you are assisting advocacy that is in and around the event, something that has seen huge traction with each and every expo we do.
We have a 99% Re-Booking rate. There is a good reason for this! This has also created waiting lists at some of our expos - so today is always a good time to connect with us, even if you are not yet ready.
As organisers - we feel a need to bring as many houses on and off wheels, containers, modulars, pods, huts, containers, domes, offices and backyard cabins as possible - Builders with THOWS are welcome to bring 1 - 4 houses. Modular builders can bring 2-3 (dependant on size).
Expandables: Please note we are INUNDATED with enquiry from new sellers of these types of structures.
In order to apply you must have a premises here in Australia - where the items are shipped to and inspected for quality control before sale, particularly addressing sealing of the construction, insulation, ventilation, and ensuring the product is safe.
They must have all AUSTRALIAN certificates for electrical and plumbing (AS international is not adequate) .
A warranty/guarantee that is NOT from the Chinese manufacturer, but from your Australian company. Trailers must be certified and legal for on road - fit for purpose.
We do not organise logistics for overseas companies.
We also require that you have a history of multiple units sold (so we know you understand the council issues) - have a Website and Social Media pages we can peruse - prior to your booking - to see what information you are giving to the public regarding council rules.
In most instances, because we know these can not be certified, the advice given at the expos is NOT to buy imported expandables.
Imports: We have a very high level of enquiry for imported 'pods', and to ensure we do not have rows and rows of the same building, we limit the number of sellers of these types of buildings. Be aware we do not accept buildings direct from the Shipping Yard - you need to unpack and deliver Ready for Display - including Australian Electrical components.
Leaflet Sites: We do not feel our visitors would like to travel and pay to enter an expo, to receive some brochures - hence, we do not allow any small sites for the purposes of handing out brochures for sellers of tiny dwellings.
Spruikers: We take HUGE OFFENCE to builders coming to the expo as a visitor and unofficially touting their wares with leaflets and business cards, both inside our expo and in the car parks.
We will not only escort you out of the expo, we will "Publicly Out" any business doing this as 'unprofessional' and 'unethical'. Please do not consider doing this. Our exhibitors have gone to great expense and effort to attend with their displays. They are also contributing to the industry, networking with each other, and are considered as being a positive part of a movement that needs to band together and stand under a professional umbrella to further the success of tiny houses across Australia.
If we are not good enough to exhibit with - then we are not good enough to be part of your half-effort in marketing, and using our brand to do so.
You can request power connection at time of booking. This is an additional (minimal) cost. Other than electricity and what you choose to take in additional advertising, there are NO extra costs. None.
You will be bumping in on the Wednesday / Thursday before the event - Forklifts and special equipment is available - just let our Site Manager know. The entire venue will be secured and patrolled by guards all night, ready for opening next day. Electrics must be tag/tested. You need an Exhibitor Lanyard to get in and out. All information you will need is provided in your Bump In Pack.
Open to the public over 3 days, the event is "Staggered" entry. This has worked very well, with attendees coming to the show in two large 'waves'... this reduces unreal amounts of queuing to your home and gives you the chance to have quality time with customers.
Friday 10am - 3pm (no staggered entry).
Saturday 9am - 6pm (it closes at 5pm but we do not throw public out... they meander out)
Sunday 9am - 5pm (sharp - so you can pack down!)
The Organisers have been running Expos since 1996. Home Shows, Lifestyle Shows, Caravan and Camping Shows, Stunt Entertainment shows and more... We have tailored the Tiny Home Expo for you. Phae is based in Sunshine Coast Qld and is entrenched in the Tiny Home Movement across Australia.
Calling and discussing with us the current marketplace and experience of other exhibitors, is one of the most helpful things you can do if entering the Tiny House marketplace.
We are currently heading an exciting Advocacy move which entails meetings with Government officials that have the potential to change the Tiny House industry dramatically. Contact us to discover more and be included in these meetings.
Compared to other professional Expos - we are well below usual costs - as we are trying to build the show and connect with all exhibitors and our attendees.
Builders have a set pricing system - we need to have an idea of what you envisage bringing to the show.
(TIP: Be bold and go large, it does not necessarily cost more)
Just connect with us - call - email - message .. Our booking form has a full price list of sites and sizes.
Off Grid/product Exhibitors have a choice of site sizes from 3m to 10m. We help position you, and often collaborate with builders too. All site sizes and prices are on our booking form - or request a bespoke size and we will send you the price.
Market stalls are encouraged to add some products that suit our visitors and make their visit more fun. A gift, an eco friendly item, a treat. Market stalls (depending on product) are offered as space only, no electricity, and no marketing/promotion/magazine - normally a 3mx3m space.
Food Vendors need to go HERE for pricing.
BEWARE of Home Shows and Caravan Shows utilising the Tiny Home Industry to bring 'novelty appeal' to their traditional shows. Our exhibitors will tell you that our 'Quality of Attendee' is why it is worth choosing Tiny Home Expo over standard Home Shows / Field Days / Caravan Shows.
Your products and services are essential to making a Show a Show! We have all types of sizes and placements, workshop areas with presentation space.
Exhibitors can choose from 3m x 3m sizes up to to 10m x 10m sites.
Check our testimonies - highly experienced event vendors have been completely taken aback by our results.
Most exhibitors underestimate the impact they get at a Tiny Home Expo.

Connecting with us is important. (just an email / a phone call)
Our QLD and NSW expos are almost full/sold out many months in advance, and those that are emailing us just weeks before an expo are now missing out - because they are not on our radar to keep them in the loop.
If you connect with us and are on our radar - even if you are not ready to exhibit - we will then know about you and add you to be included, sending you relevant information.
Booking is simple. One form and a chat with our Site Manager.
All we ask is that you book, and do not give us a nonchalant "can't make it" last minute!
We have suffered immensely from this in the past and can not continue to do what we do with exhibitors pulling out at whim, within weeks of the expos. If your booking is a MAYBE, tell us at the time that it is a 'maybe', and we will treat it as "pencilled in" and not guaranteed.
For Exhibitors, Our coffee table style magazine will feature your business, logo, description and contact details. Savvy exhibitors will know that investing a half page or full page advertisement in this magazine is a fantastic ROI tool. 1000's of people will come and take the magazine home (which is free to every visitor), and show their friends and family. It is used for months and months after the expo finishes. (please note we can not accept advertising for businesses that could not attend the expo as exhibitors).
We have corporate packages for sponsorship structured around BRANDING with the Tiny Home Industry. Signage, Banners, Cross promotion - From Gold packages encompassing the entire expo - to Bronze packages for logo endorsement on visitor show bags. These are simple packages which can involve exhibiting physically at the expo - or not. Perfectly aligning your brand with the fastest growing market in Australia - Tiny Houses.
The industry networks at the event itself - including a get-together on Saturday afternoon after the expo for exhibitors.
If you are looking to sell to the tiny home industry, we suggest that you can enter the expo and deliver your business cards - keeping in mind that the builders and exhibitors are there to greet customers and not be held up on your sales presentation.
The organisers are perpetually called for 'lists' of all our contacts. Please be respectful that we are not your leads source - our database is valuable and a product of years of our hard work.
As an exhibitor, you will choose to have a LISTING, or a half page or a full page advertisement.
The magazine is highly depended upon by all attendees
Make sure you reach our MAGAZINE deadline - which is 4 weeks before each expo. People take these home and share them, using them for up to a year after the event as they make their decisions and choose their products.
