The annual Parade of Homes will show 16 houses this weekend.
Each house has a variety of styles, designs, and price ranges. Homebuilders say the parade is special because people get the chance to walk through the homes all around Billings. Parade of Homes Chair, Lauri Patterson, says they really took it to a new level to show the public something different.
"We decided to step out of the box this year and show a lot of neat trends, neat designs ideas, and some new functions, and some home automations," said Patterson.
Last year they broke a record with over 5,000 people, and they would like to see that number increase this weekend.
The showing takes place September 14th and 15th, and September 21st and 22nd.
Tickets are $10 for adults, and kids 12 and under are free.
