Edison is sneaky-good in winter because you can do actual stuff indoors without paying Manhattan prices or battling for parking like it’s an Olympic sport.
1.Super Pet Expo (New Jersey Convention & Exposition Center) — Fri–Sun, Jan 9–11
Even if you don’t have a pet, you can still go to watch tiny dogs in sweaters and feel joy again.
Cost Box: Adults $20 • Kids $10
2.Fly Fishing Show (NJ Convention & Exposition Center) — Fri–Sun, Jan 23–25
For anglers, outdoorsy-curious folks, or anyone who enjoys looking at gear they absolutely don’t need (but kind of want).
Cost Box: Adult: $20 (1-day) / $35 (2-day) / $45 (3-day) • Kids: 5 & under free / 6–12 $5 • Military w/ ID: $12 • Scouts under 16 in uniform: free
3.Total Pro Landscape Expo (NJ Convention & Exposition Center) — Tue–Wed, Jan 27–28
It’s oddly satisfying to wander an expo and pretend you’re about to become a “plants & projects” person this year.
Cost Box: $40.00
4.Middlesex County Regional Chamber Networking Luncheon (Pines Manor) — Thu, Jan 22
If your 2026 goal is “make more money / meet more people / stop being allergic to networking,” this is a clean way to start.
Cost Box: $50 members • $65 non-members
My top pick: Super Pet Expo (because happiness is apparently a corgi in a hoodie).
Which would you go to? pets, fishing, “future homeowner energy,” or networking? Drop your vote.
