LOUISVILLE, KY -- Registration is now open for Hardscape North America (HNA), set for October 22 to 24, 2025 at the Kentucky Exposition Center. Hardscape contractors, landscapers and dealers can secure their spot at a discount rate by registering before May 31st at HardscapeNA.com.
“HNA isn’t just any event -- it’s the place to be for the latest and greatest in hardscape and landscape products and cutting-edge technology,” said Bob Thomas, president & CEO of the Concrete Masonry & Hardscapes Association (CMHA), which produces HNA. “In fact, industry members return year after year to immerse themselves in hands-on demonstrations, explore innovations, connect with peers at one-of-a-kind networking events and take advantage of top-tier education and technical training.”
Justin Burkholder of Creative Outdoor Solutions in Edina, MO, said, “I absolutely love this show. I've gone the last four years and definitely plan to be back. Education, products, tools and so much more. I always come back ready to kick it in high gear and add new services to our list.”
