(Toronto, ON – January 10, 2019) – Blue Ant Media announced today that it will be expanding its Canadian consumer show business with the acquisition of The Baby Shows, which take place in Toronto in Spring and Fall at the Enercare Centre. The deal will see the shows added to the media company’s portfolio of consumer events across Canada, which include the Spring and Fall Cottage Life Shows in Toronto, the Ottawa Cottage Life and Backyard Show, the Edmonton Cottage Life and Cabin Show and the Seasons Christmas Show in Toronto. The Baby Show’s co-founders, Nick Eliades and Sandy Pedrogao, will join Blue Ant Media to continue overseeing exhibitor sales, sponsorships and show operations with their existing team, including show manager Stephanie Solda.

The Baby Shows are premium pregnancy and early parenting consumer shows, offering goods and services dedicated to guiding new parents through pregnancy and the first few years of child care. With more than 200 local and national exhibitors as well as workshops, seminars and demonstrations from Canada’s leading parenting experts, The Baby Shows have attracted premium sponsorship with top-tier brands including RBC Insurance, Indigo, Safety 1st and Pampers. The next Baby Show will take place in Toronto on April 6 and 7 at the Enercare Centre at Exhibition Place.

“We’re thrilled to add the baby and parenting category to our roster of celebrated consumer shows across Canada, which are a key part of Blue Ant Media’s growing Canadian Media business,” said Jamie Schouela, President, Canadian Media. “We look forward to work with Nick, Sandy and their team to continue to build the Baby Show’s brand and events.”
