October 2. 2026 – The Western Imprint Canada Show made its successful debut in Edmonton on September 23 and 24, welcoming 781 trade buyers — along with 143 end-buyers — to the Edmonton Expo Centre’s Hall E for two days of networking, product discovery and business development. brbr
The 2026 event marked a significant milestone for the Western Imprint Canada Show, which hosted its first Edmonton event following 25 years in Calgary. The strong attendance and overwhelmingly positive response from attendees demonstrate the demand for a major promotional products and product-decorating industry event in Edmonton. brbr
Early post-show survey results reinforce that response, with 96.1% rating the Show as Good to Excellent. Even more notably, 97.4% of respondents stated that they already intend to return to the next Western Imprint Canada Show. brbr
“The response to our first Edmonton Show has been incredibly encouraging,” said Show Manager Tony Muccilli. “The attendance, enthusiasm and feedback from the Western Canadian industry have shown us that Edmonton was ready for this event. The exhibitors and attendees embraced the new location, and the results speak for themselves.” brbr
For trade buyers, the Show provided an opportunity to connect face-to-face with leading suppliers, discover new products and technologies, explore new business opportunities and strengthen existing industry relationships. brbr
“The showcase is a great network event that connects companies with suppliers you may not have even known existed,” said Myk Morris, Mezmar Promotions brbr
Randy Brownlee of Al Anderson’s Source for Sports said “The Western Imprint Canada Show is a must for all involved in the imprint industry.
For other attendees, the opportunity to discover new suppliers and build relationships was equally important. brbr
Savannah Eshleman of Gologo.ca summed up the strength of the exhibitor lineup simply: “Many of the premier promo suppliers in Canada were at this show!” brbr
Exhibitor Mike Grant of Halftime Holdings Ltd., shared the same enthusiasm for the event: “The revitalized Western Imprint Show is once again a Must Attend Event!”
