NO QUESTION: CANADAʼS PREMIER LIFESTYLE TRADE SHOW
You might notice something different about our logo. The "?" is gone.
As the show continues to evolve, it no longer makes sense to include a '?' in the name. After 7 years of shows our identity is stronger than ever in the Canadian apparel market and there is no longer a question as to what the show is about. The best brands in the lifestyle, fashion and action sport categories know where to meet Canada's most dynamic retailers in a relaxed but business first atmosphere.

"Over the last few years the show has become an extremely effective show for Western retailers, and you see the people from the east jumping out here now too. At the end of the day it’s a working show but its relaxed and people come here to write business, and that’s what we’re all about. - Nick Russell, Rip Curl Canada

VANCOUVER, DESTINATION CITY
Framed between the towering North Shore mountains and the deep blue of the Straight of Georgia, Vancouver's busy core hosts our attendees like no other city can. A bustling nightlife, five star multicultural cuisine, and incredible access to the best outdoor activities Supernatural British Columbia can offer make the KNOWSHOW as much of a rejuvenating escape as it is a benchmark for productivity.

"it’s a great vibe, the city of Vancouver is amazing. There are too many things to do, you can’t make it to all of them." - Lyndon Cabellon, One Dist

Boasting a six acre "living roof" and a unique fish habitat built into the foundations of the building The KNOWSHOW is proud to call the Vancouver Convention Centre home. Built over land and water, the West Building is proud to be the first convention centre in the world to be given a LEED © Platinum certification.
