According to a press release from the team behind the Great Home Expo, Jess and Troy Pearl have officially purchased all three Maine Home Shows in Auburn, Augusta, and Portland from longtime organizer Travis Dow.

This marks the start of a new chapter for home shows across Maine. The Pearls say their goal is to continue supporting local businesses while bringing communities together through fun, high-quality events.

Jess Pearl said, in part:

We’re incredibly excited to continue the legacy of the Maine Home Shows while introducing new opportunities for local businesses to connect with customers.  Our goal has always been to help Maine businesses grow and to give attendees something exciting, inspiring, and valuable to experience.

The Great Home Expo is already known for hosting lively events that highlight Maine talent, craftsmanship, and creativity in the home improvement world. By bringing the Maine Home Shows under their name, Jess and Troy plan to add new energy, more marketing reach, and a continued focus on community connection.

Travis Dow, founder of the Maine Home Shows, said, in part:

Jess and Troy care about Maine businesses and the people behind them. They’ve got that same local spirit and drive to keep these events growing. I know the shows are in good hands, and Mainers are going to love what’s coming next.
