MANTS 2025 – Mid-Atlantic Nursery Trade Show
January 8, 2025 - January 10, 2025
The Mid-Atlantic Nursery Trade Show (MANTS) has been a cornerstone event in the horticulture industry since its inception in 1970. Established by the Maryland and Virginia Nurserymen’s Associations, and later joined by the West Virginia Nurserymen’s Association, MANTS has grown significantly over the years.
Held annually at the Baltimore Convention Center, MANTS occupies 300,000 square feet of exhibit space, making it a premier forum for industry members to meet, conduct business, and exchange knowledge. The show attracts exhibitors and attendees from across the United States, Canada, Great Britain, Australia, Europe, and Asia.
MANTS is unique in that it focuses solely on business-to-business interactions, without offering classroom education. Instead, all learning takes place on the show floor between exhibitors and attendees. This approach has made MANTS a must-attend event for those in the horticulture industry.
In 2020, MANTS celebrated its 50th anniversary, a testament to its enduring popularity and importance in the industry. Even during the 2021 COVID-19 pandemic, MANTS successfully transitioned to a virtual format, demonstrating its adaptability and commitment to serving the industry.
