BLUE ANT MEDIA ACQUIRES SEASONS CHRISTMAS SHOW, EXPANDS ITS ROSTER OF CANADIAN CONSUMER EVENTS

8 August 2016

Holiday-themed event will join Blue Ant Media’s existing show lineup, including the Spring and Fall Cottage Life Shows in Toronto and the Edmonton Cottage Life & Cabin Show

(Toronto, ON, August 8, 2016) – Blue Ant Media announced today that it will be expanding its Canadian consumer show business with the acquisition of the Toronto-based Seasons Christmas Show from Matrix North Events, Inc.

Matrix North Management will remain involved with the 2016 event to transition the show’s operations to Blue Ant Media’s Consumer Show team.
