New RX Tradeshow Event Targets DIYers
RX Global Tradeshow has announced the debut of DIY CON, a first-of-its-kind immersive event celebrating the creativity, confidence, and community of modern DIYers. Coming to Dallas November 6-8 2026, DIY CON will bring together makers, dreamers, and doers of all skill levels from beginners to pros for three days of hands-on workshops, immersive experiences, interactive brand storytelling, and a place for creative connections.
RX said in a statement that DIY CON is a celebration of skill, creativity, and the “I got this” spirit of the modern DIYer. “As millennial homeowners, renters, and creators continue to power the DIY movement, DIY CON transforms the traditional trade show into a polished playground for creativity and connection. Attendees of all skill levels are invited to roll up their sleeves, try out premium tools, learn from leading creators, meet and greet with their favorite celebrities/tv personalities/stars, and leave with the confidence and skills to bring their next project to life.” 
Event Director Hector Morfin said, “DIY CON is not the traditional trade show, but an immersive experience where attendees are the ones who roll up their sleeves and do it themselves. This isn’t about scrolling through finished projects online, but about being the person who dreams it, sketches it, and builds projects that come to life. Whether you’re learning to lay tile, refining woodshopping skills, or looking to build community in the DIY industry, we want every attendee to walk away inspired and ready to create.”
DIY CON’s debut will feature:
- Hands-On Workshops: From beginner-friendly projects to pro-level builds led by industry experts, professional techniques are shared with playground energy, where getting hands-on and messy means getting better.
- Maker Meetups: Spaces for collaboration, mentorship, and shared creativity with your favorite DIY stars live. Find your project partners and lifelong mentors in a community that celebrates DIY progress over perfection.
- Inspiring Keynotes: Stories of transformation from your favorite DIY creators who turned “I wish I could” into “I did.” See tomorrow’s trends today, where industry insiders share the secrets that transform your next project plan.
- Interactive Brand Experiences: Explore new products and tools designed to make the challenging DIY projects feel fun and within reach with exclusive access to new products curated for real-life projects.
