The Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) opens registration today for the 2026 show, which will take place February 17-19 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Fla.
The largest North American trade expo and professional networking event for the $235 billion kitchen and bath industry is back in Orlando after three years in Las Vegas. KBIS, owned by the National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA) and produced by Emerald Expositions, returns to the East Coast to connect architects, builders and designers from all over the country with top brands and innovators from all over the world. The 2026 show comes after a booming 2025 show in Vegas, solidifying it as the epicenter of industry momentum.
“Our KBIS community is dynamic and diverse, bringing together voices and visions from across the country and around the world,” said Bill Darcy, Global President & CEO of NKBA | KBIS. “That’s why we’re especially excited for Orlando 2026 – Florida is a thriving East Coast design hub to many of our members and known for its distinctive take on architecture, interior design, and whole-home inspiration. This show will mark a bold step forward, spotlighting global design innovators, expanding our continuing education offerings well beyond kitchen and bath, and cultivating a professional network that’s second to none. We can’t wait to welcome you to the Sunshine State!”

Exhibitors from around the world are preparing to unveil their showstopping booths that will take over the Orange County Convention Center this upcoming February at KBIS 2026. Top brands from the kitchen & bath sector will show their latest innovations, including Cosentino, THOR Kitchen, Signature Kitchen Suite and Kohler. Cult favorites Armac Martin, Concretti Designs and Native Trails will show a blend of today’s trends with a luxury eye. Tech giants (Samsung) and startups (FreePower) alike will be on display with the newest intelligent living solutions.
Giving the much-deserved recognition to standout exhibitors will be KBIS mainstays, including the celebrated Best of KBIS Awards, hotly anticipated Best Booth Awards, and media darling Hard Hat Media Tour. NEXTStage (South Hall S28201), the KBIS center for ideas, discussion, and entertainment, will be debuting new material featuring engaging panels, intimate chats and influential keynotes that are not to be missed.
The LUXURY Lounge, focusing on high-end design as a substantial and pivotal sect of the industry, returns with an enriching space curated by celebrity designer Julee Ireland where guests can learn about and deepen the conversation surrounding luxury in design: what it means, where to find it and how to achieve it. And after a successful debut in 2025, the KBIS Podcast Studio will be back for its second year of live recordings on site with leading voices and visionaries. Both new and familiar programming will be nestled in the heart of Orlando, a welcome mixup to the KBIS scene.
Once again joining KBIS in Orlando is the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB)’s International Builders Show (IBS) to create the 18th annual Design & Construction Week. Registration for KBIS grants access to exhibitors of both shows, unlocking luxury, smart tech, live demos, bright ideas, good design, stunning craftsmanship, and excellent company for the entire DCW community.
