The Homebuilding & Renovating Show is the UK's premier event for self-builders and renovators, held over four days at the NEC Birmingham across Halls 9, 10 & 11. The 2026 edition brings together 500+ exhibitors with 39,000+ visitors seeking products, advice, and inspiration for their building and renovation projects. The show features 380+ exhibitor stands and 120+ seminar sessions across four theatres, covering everything from planning permission and architectural design to insulation, heating, kitchens, and smart home technology.
