Friday, March 13 – Saturday, March 14, 2020 ** Tickets On Sale Now **
Returning to the Los Angeles area, the Pomona Fairplex will host Pinners
Conference California, Friday and Saturday, March 13 – 14, 2020. Pinners Conference is a must-attend event where lifestyle experts and trend setters connect with those who love to DIY, design, decorate, craft, cook, and create. For two days, guests will have the opportunity to attend more than one hundred classes and presentations covering a variety of topics led by industry leaders. “Pinners Conference is the only DIY, cooking, crafting and style expo where the pages of Pinterest come to life,” saidRoxanne Bennett, CEO. “We connect consumers with the top influencers in their fields who offer the know-how
needed to start (and finish!) any project.”
Originating as a women’s expo, with a few retail vendors, the idea of a Pinterest-
inspired event was born. “We were inspired to provide a space for the “everyday”
woman to be inspired, try something new, re-discover herself and be educated, as
well as shop,” said Bennett. “Our first Pinners Conference was in Salt Lake City in
2013. We have since expanded to six locations throughout the country, adding Texas
and Arizona in 2016, Georgia in 2017, California and Minneapolis in 2018 and for the
second year in a row, returning to the Inland Empire.”
Expecting an estimated 10,000-15,000 attendees at the Pomona Fairplex, Pinners
Conference showcases the best and brightest crafters and lifestyle leaders in one
forum to share their knowledge by offering classes that aren’t easily found at local
craft stores or boutiques.
“Pinners Conference is continually adapting to what is trending now. Whether that is the hottest trends in fashion
and beauty, in home decor, DIY, cooking, fitness or crafting.” said Bennett. “Our classes and exhibitors change
every year based on what people are excited about now.”

“Pinners Conference is truly about the experience. When consumers come, they get to pick and choose which
classes they take or if they just want to shop and who they shop from,” said Bennett. “Guests can customize
theirnmost fun and creative weekend, ever. Someone might stop by the Michaels
Crafts booth and create a free make-and-take before taking a class by a local
artist to learn how to watercolor, then find their new favorite outfit from a
local boutique.”
Advance registration is recommended, classes will sellout, however spots
are available for walk-ins the day of the event.
“Come with your friends, your kids, a girl’s weekend, or make it day for
yourself,” said Bennett. “Our guests are always amazed after trying just one
class or buying that something special, they’ve discovered a love for
something new!”
