If you work on pools and spas or have anything to do with aquatic tech or outdoor living, you do not want to miss the upcoming Western Pool & Spa Show. This is the big one on the West Coast. It’s happening Thursday through Saturday, February 12-14, 2026, at the Long Beach Convention Center — with exhibit hall hours roughly 1-5 p.m. every day.
This show isn’t just “another trade expo” — it’s a full throttle immersion in the future of pools, spas, and outdoor luxury:
• Massive Exhibit Floor: You’ll see the latest products, gear, and tech from top manufacturers and innovators — from pool automation systems to equipment, design innovations and more.
• Expert-Led Seminars: Whether you’re a seasoned pool pro or a budding builder/owner, there are educational tracks (in English and Spanish) covering water chemistry, equipment repair, business strategies, spa maintenance — even a chance to get certified as a pool operator (CPO).
• Giveaways & Raffles: Hourly prize drawings, cash giveaways, and serious swag — someone will walk away with the big-ticket check for 20 thousand dollars.
• Networking + Industry Vibes: This show gathers pool pros, contractors, distributors, buyers — the kind of connections that can lead to collaborations, job leads, or future business opportunities.
Best of all — you’re in Long Beach. Which means after (or before) you check out pumps and filters, you can dip into some of SoCal’s sweetest coastal vibes:
• Want a break from pool talk? Check out the Aquarium of the Pacific — one of the largest aquariums in the U.S., packed with marine life and giant tanks.
• History + Charm: The storied Queen Mary — the nearly-centuryold ocean liner — offers tours, stunning harbor views and a moody, vintage ambiance. This year, it’s a host hotel!
• Waterfront Fun: Stroll through Shoreline Village, ride bikes along the coast, catch a whale-watching cruise, soak up sunset harbor vibes, or hit Downtown Long Beach’s lively restaurant & nightlife scene.
• Theme-Park Bonus: Bring the family and send them to Disneyland, Disney California Adventure, Universal Studios Hollywood or Knott’s Berry Farm — all within an easy drive while you focus on the show.
If you’re serious about building, renovating, repairing, or just geeking out on pool/spa lifestyle — the Western Pool & Spa Show is where it all converges. You get cuttingedge education, top-tier gear, killer networking… and then you step out into Long Beach’s waterfront paradise.
