Every year, over 225 home-and-lifestyle vendors and experts descend upon Toronto at the Fall Home Show.  

The annual event provides homeowners, design enthusiasts and DIYers with the opportunity to get real-life advice from experts and to find inspiration in the latest and greatest in home-related products and services.  

The event, taking place at Enercare Centre, Exhibition Place in Toronto from Oct. 2-4, will feature celebrity appearances, free consultations with the city’s top designers and RenoMark renovators, and hands-on experiences.  

For homeowners planning a renovation, one of the single most beneficial things to do before beginning a renovation is to speak to a professional.  

Seeking expert advice from a RenoMark renovator early in your renovation planning and budgeting could help save you a significant amount of time, energy and resources down the line.  

The Fall Home Show will boast a booth called “Ask a Renovation Pro” where experts from Ridgestone Homes, Sosna and UK Construction will be present to answer any renovation-related questions.  

Attendees will have the opportunity to discuss renovation ideas, goals and plans, and will walk away feeling inspired and with greater clarity on how to progress in their home renovation planning.  

The Fall Home Show also provides free design consultations with expert designers from across the GTA. Spend 15 minutes discussing everything from countertops and cabinetry, to paint colours and pillows.  

Creating a personalized and unique space to suit the needs of any homeowner or renter is an exciting and fulfilling experience. The Fall Home Show gives attendees the confidence, resources and tools to ensure that process is done confidently and provides all the expert-advice you need in one place.  

The Fall Home Show will also feature celebrity appearances, including these main stage headliners.  

Amy Dillon, creative director and principal of Amy Dillon Interiors, an award-winning Toronto-based studio known for its personalized interiors, will take the stage all three days (Friday at 12:30 p.m., Saturday at 3 p.m. and Sunday at 1:30 p.m.) to share her best tips on how to inject colour into your space and transform your home experience.  

On Saturday, Oct. 3 at 12:30 p.m., Kristen Coutts — host of Beer Budget Reno on Home Network — will take the main stage to share her cost-saving tips and renovation hacks. Hear how she uses affordable upcycles, feature walls and built-ins to bring a home to life on a budget.  

Then on Sunday Oct. 4 at 12:30 p.m., hear from Canada’s garden expert, Frankie Flowers, as he shares how autumn may be the most ideal time to create your best garden yet. He’ll discuss how planting, prepping and planning in the fall could help you save money and create a blooming outdoor living space.
