The Broward County Convention Center will host Florida's largest Home Design & Remodeling Expo from August 29 through September 1, 2025, featuring hundreds of exhibitors showcasing products and services ranging from remodeling and smart home technology to outdoor kitchens, bathrooms, sustainable design, furniture, art, and décor. This four-day event provides comprehensive access to the latest innovations in home design for homeowners, interior designers, architects, contractors, and real estate professionals under one roof.
Celebrity designer Ty Pennington, known for his work on Trading Spaces, Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, and Rock the Block, will headline the event with appearances on the Home Design Stage Saturday and Sunday at 3:00 PM. Pennington will share design tips, home remodeling insights, and host Q&A and meet-and-greet sessions, offering attendees direct access to his expertise. The event's significance lies in providing practical education and inspiration for Florida's growing home improvement market, particularly valuable given current supply chain challenges and evolving real estate trends.
Industry professionals will present critical insights during the Building Broward panel discussion on Saturday at 2:00 PM, featuring RWorld President Jonathan Lickstein and other leaders addressing real estate trends, renovation versus relocation decisions, and the changing role of realtors. The culinary stage will feature demonstrations by Hell's Kitchen standout Chef Amanda Currie showcasing Flor-ibbean fusion cuisine, Executive Chef Bhavesh Patel preparing traditional Indian Kadahi Chicken, and Chefs Anthony Garcia Montero and Brianna Long of A|B Private Affairs presenting globally inspired coastal cuisine.
A highlight of the expo is the fully built-out Designer Show House, where three top South Florida designers—Camila Crispino, Perla Lichi, and Catherina De Nicolo—present fully realized spaces using products available throughout the show. This walk-through experience offers attendees tangible examples of how to blend creativity, luxury, and practical design solutions in their own homes. Tickets for the event are available for purchase at https://www.homeshows.com/tickets/, with on-site parking available at the Northport Parking Garage.
The expo's timing during Labor Day weekend makes it accessible to working professionals and families, while its comprehensive programming addresses both immediate home improvement needs and long-term design planning. For South Florida's robust housing market, events like this provide crucial networking opportunities and exposure to emerging trends that could influence local design standards and homeowner expectations. The convergence of celebrity expertise, industry analysis, and hands-on product demonstrations creates a unique educational environment that could shape home design decisions throughout the region.
