Home Show Opens, ART Nears Shutdown, Business Leaders Gather in Anaheim
Anaheim, CA – March 21, 2026 – City events and transit changes headline the weekend as Home Show opens and ART nears shutdown.
This weekend brings a mix of big crowds, business gatherings and a notable transportation change for Anaheim residents and visitors.
Anaheim Home Show Opens at Convention Center
The Anaheim Home Show kicks off today, March 21, at the Anaheim Convention Center and runs through Sunday. The public show draws homeowners, contractors and families looking for renovation ideas, home improvement services and design inspiration.
With steady spring tourism already in full swing, the event is expected to add to foot traffic around the Resort District and nearby hotels.
Anaheim Resort Transportation to End Service March 31
A major shift is coming to local transit. Anaheim Resort Transportation, the city-run shuttle system serving hotels and attractions in the Resort area, will end service on March 31, 2026.
City officials previously cited rising operating costs and flat revenues. The system has long connected visitors to Disneyland-area hotels, shopping centers and entertainment spots. Travelers will need to look to hotel shuttles, rideshare options or regional transit alternatives after the shutdown date.
Women in Business Luncheon Draws Local Leaders
On March 19, business and community leaders gathered at the JW Marriott Anaheim Resort for the annual Women in Business Luncheon. The event featured networking, a showcase of women-owned businesses and a program highlighting leadership and professional growth.
The gathering reflects Anaheim’s ongoing push to support entrepreneurship and small business development, particularly as the city prepares for continued growth tied to major entertainment and hospitality investments.
What It Means for Anaheim
From large public events to infrastructure changes, this week underscores Anaheim’s dual identity as both a tourism powerhouse and a working city. Residents can expect heavier traffic near the Convention Center this weekend, while visitors should plan ahead for transportation changes set to take effect at the end of the month.
