2026 Genest Bootcamp Hardscape Expo

New England Hardscape & Masonry Pros — This is Your Event!

Get ready for the 14th Annual Genest Bootcamp Hardscape Expo—our biggest and most dynamic Bootcamp yet. This one-day event is your chance to level up your skills, connect with top suppliers, and stay ahead of the curve in the hardscape and masonry industries. If you’re a Bootcamp veteran, we’ve made some exciting changes to help you get the most out of this year’s event! You can read all about that on the event page.

Bootcamp 2026 will take place on Tuesday, February 3 (snow date February 4) exclusively at our South Portland venue — The Point Community Center. This location, new to us last year, received outstanding feedback for its spacious layout, modern facilities, and easy access. It also allows us to host a much larger event all in one day, bringing all the action, training, and networking under one roof. Make it a midwinter getaway to Portland, Maine, and enjoy the city’s great food, waterfront, and attractions while you’re here.

This year, we’re introducing a small $10 ticket price to help cover the cost of the catered lunch — while still delivering the same hands-on training, networking, and industry insights you’ve come to expect.

🎟️ Your ticket includes:

• Full day of product training from Genest experts and guest instructors.
• Live installation demos covering the latest tools, materials, and techniques.
• Access to manufacturer reps to answer questions and discuss upcoming trends.
• Mouth-watering catered BBQ lunch to recharge during the day.
• Expanded exhibition hall with dozens of booths showcasing product samples, tools, and machinery.
• Networking with industry peers from across New England.
• Prizes and giveaways throughout the event.
• Commemorative insulated tote for collecting literature and giveaways (first 350 registered attendees through the doors).
• Ticket for the end-of-day raffle for prizes donated by our vendors (must be present to win).
• Commemorative duffel bag (first 300 registered attendees who stay all day — distributed at end of day).

We’ve kept the cost low so you and your crew can still attend without breaking the budget — and get even more value out of your day.
