When is the next BOP Home & Outdoors Show?

The next BOP Home & Outdoors Show takes place on the 18th, 19th and 20th of October 2024.

Where is the show held?

Mercury Arena Baypark at 81 Truman Lane in Mount Maunganui - see it here on Google Maps.

What time do the doors open and close to the public?

The doors open at 10am each day. On Friday and Saturday we close at 5pm, and on Sunday we close at 4pm.

How much are tickets?

Tickets are $10 for general adult admission and children 13 & under are free. Get 2 for 1 tickets on Friday. SuperGold cardholders $8 on Saturday & Sunday.

Where can I buy tickets?

Tickets are sold at the door on the day. Cash and Eftpos are accepted - sorry, no credit or Paywave.

If I leave and come back again, do I have to pay twice?

You can enter and leave the show as many times as you like on the day that you purchased your ticket. Ask at the exit for a pass-out stamp as proof of purchase.

Where do I park?

There are 2000 free carparks at Mercury Arena Baypark. We have parking attendants and signs to show you where to go.

Are there ATM facilities available?

Most exhibitors have Eftpos at their stands. If you need to get cash out, this can be arranged at the Mercury Arena Baypark reception in the foyer.

Is there internet or Wi-Fi available?

There is public Wi-Fi available at the venue. It's free, and you don't need a password to access it.

Is there a parcel minding service?

If you've bought something big or heavy and don't want to carry it around ask at the Info Desk - we can store it for you temporarily until you leave.

Are there wheelchairs available?

Yes! Ask at the ticket booth as you enter. Numbers are limited, so it can be helpful to book them in advance by contacting Bay Events on 07 576 0513.

When is the busiest time?

It is busiest first thing in the morning until after lunch. If you want to avoid the crowds, it's recommended to come in the afternoon - particularly Sunday afternoon.

I've received an email offering to sell me the attendees list for the show. Is this for real?

No! This is a scam and is not associated with us in any way. Don't reply, and block the sender. We do not sell our mailing list.

Is this a new show? I've never heard of it before.

The BOP Home & Outdoors Show has been renamed - it was previously the Bay of Plenty Home Show.

Who organises the show?

The BOP Home & Outdoors Show is organised locally by Bay Events Ltd - visit our website to see what else we do in the Bay of Plenty!
