Showcase Your Best Work to Tallahassee's Largest Audience

The Parade of Homes is Tallahassee’s largest open house event and the single best opportunity for builders to get their work in front of the public. Over 1,000 visitors walk through each participating home every weekend, giving you direct, face-to-face exposure to buyers who are actively looking to build.

What's Included in Your Entry:

1.5 Pages of Professional Advertising in 15,000+ Magazines

Every entry receives dedicated features in two professionally produced magazines distributed throughout Tallahassee and the surrounding areas:
 
  • Full-Page Entry Feature in the official Parade of Homes magazine — including a main photo, floor plan, and custom specs that show the public exactly what you built and how you built it.

 

  • Half-Page “Meet the Builder” Profile — your space to introduce your company, your story, and what sets you apart.

 

  • Half-Page Entry Ad + Meet the Builder Feature in our partner publication, Homes & Land magazine.
 
Between both publications, your name, your brand, and your craftsmanship are in the hands of over 15,000 readers across the Big Bend.

Radio Advertising

Your company name is featured in radio advertisements running across approximately 8 channels over two weeks leading up to and during the Parade. That’s thousands of listeners across the Big Bend hearing your name — building awareness before visitors even step through the door.

Social Media Promotion

Your entry is highlighted in a series of dedicated social media posts before and throughout the event. From sneak peeks and builder spotlights to event-day coverage, we drive traffic and build buzz with an engaged local audience — putting your work in front of people who are actively following the Parade.

Direct Access to Qualified Buyers

This isn’t random foot traffic. Parade visitors are people who are actively interested in building, buying, or remodeling. You get real conversations with real prospects — right inside your finished product.

A Walkable Portfolio Piece

Photos on a website are one thing. Letting someone stand inside your work, touch the finishes, and feel the space is something else entirely. Your entry becomes the most powerful portfolio piece you can offer.

Community Credibility

Participating in a BIABB event signals professionalism, quality, and commitment to the local building community. You’re aligning your brand with a trusted organization that’s been supporting Big Bend builders since 1949.

Award Recognition

Entries are judged by industry professionals for Gold, Silver, and Best of Show awards. Winning an award gives you lasting credibility with “Award-Winning Builder” being a distinction that sets you apart for years to come.
