The ultimate destination for the house-proud, home renovators, interior design enthusiasts, and garden lovers, it’s a must-attend show for fresh inspiration, innovative ideas, and plenty of entertainment to help you create your ideal home and outdoor spaces.
This spring, the show’s much-loved Lifestyle section will feature three new areas: the Spring Clean Pavilion for decluttering and organisation inspiration, Pets Corner with unique products for your furry friends, and Beauty Alley, a haven for self-care enthusiasts featuring the latest beauty products and tips.
Ideal Home Show Scotland offers something for everyone including the inspiring life-size Dream Home where visitors can purchase everything they see directly at the Show. Curated by a team of interior designers as well as renowned brands such as Sofology, it’s a stunning experience!
Celebrity appearances from BBC Scotland’s Home of The Year judges – Banjo Beale, Anna Campbell Jones, and Danny Campbell – will provide valuable insights and inspiration live on stage throughout the show. Their expert advice and top tips will help visitors create the home they’ve always dreamed of.
