The Second Life Home and Garden Expo is now open – and it will stay open until Sunday April 7th.

There are ten regions, packed with stores ranging from small shops in malls to displays of mansions (old and new styles), with stores selling furniture and furnishings, building tools, plants and vegetation and so much more.

And then there’s an extra special region – a preview of the NEW Linden Homes!

And then there are the breedables (there’ll be an auction of rares).

Plus the entertainment with leading Second Life singers and DJs, classes, talks (details coming shortly), the popular Home and Garden Decorating Competition, a Hunt and the Lantern Release at 4pm SLT every day.

The full Shopping Guide will be available shortly, but in the mean-time, here are your links to the Expo:

Hope 1 – Sponsored by Loggin’ Off Homes

Hope 3 – Sponsored by NICE
Hope 4 – Sponsored by Varriale Designs

Travel by Monorail at the Home and Garden Expo

Events

Are you ready for the Home and Garden Expo?

March 15, 2019 primperfect

It’s opening today at 8am SLT and there’s so much to see!

And so much to do.

There is, of course, Shopping. From small cosy malls (located at the four corners of the estate) to luxury mansions and wild fantasy builds, to ultra sleek ultra modern living choices – the Homes and Gardens Expo has it all.

And then there’s gardens.

There’s also the Breedables Market (and yes, you can shop here too).

There are Talks. And Classes. And Shopping. And entertainment from great Second Life musicians and djs.

There’s a Hunt. There’s the Decorating Competition – enter yourselves or feel inspired by what you see!

And when you’ve been inspired, you can of course … go Shopping!

There’s the daily Lantern Release (at 4pm SLT) – a quiet time to reflect and remember what this event is all about – raising fund for Relay for Life of Second Life – and supporting survivors and caregivers.

There’s a monorail to ride so that you can travel easily between regions. And Shop.

And there are surprises still to come.

Did we mention the Shopping?

And it all opens at 8am SLT today!
