VIP Tickets

Order VIP Tickets for the 100th Anniversary of the Home & Garden Show!

Show your appreciation and stay connected to your clients by offering them a complimentary ticket to the nation’s oldest home & garden show—the REALTORS® Home & Garden Show—as we celebrate our 100th anniversary in 2026! The Show will take place March 20–29, 2026 at the Wisconsin State Fair Park, and our enhanced VIP Ticket Program makes client engagement easier and more effective than ever.

New and Improved for 2026
We’ve modernized the ticketing experience! Traditional paper vouchers have been replaced with convenient E-tickets. Your clients will receive digital tickets using a unique code created specifically for you, making distribution simple, fast and efficient.

Prefer paper tickets?
Clients who wish to have a printed ticket can easily print a voucher at home during online checkout. Printing instructions will be included in their purchase confirmation email. Tickets can also be displayed on a mobile device at the door.

This new system also eliminates issues with illegible, incomplete, or incorrect information on redeemed tickets. All client contact information must now be entered completely and accurately online in order to receive their tickets via email—ensuring clean, reliable data for post-show reporting.

Why Participate?
Staying connected with your clients throughout the year is one of the most effective ways to remain top-of-mind when they’re ready for their next real estate move. The VIP Ticket Program is a simple, low-cost marketing tool that delivers real value.

Build loyalty and goodwill—your clients will appreciate the gesture and personal touch. Track your engagement with post-show reporting, allowing you to see who redeemed your tickets within two weeks after the Show closes.

  2. Receive Your Unique Ticket Code
    • Once your order is processed, GMAR will email you a unique ticket code to share with your clients. This code can be distributed via email, mail, or text—paired with your personalized flyer provided by GMAR. Clients will use the code during online checkout on the State Fair ticketing website.
    • What about the personal message printed on the tickets?  Since E-tickets do not include the traditional four lines of printed text found on paper tickets, GMAR has created a flyer you can customize with your own message—and even add a logo—to accompany your unique code.
