ABOUT THE EVENT:

From kitchen upgrades to energy-efficient overhauls, navigating a home renovation or custom build can be overwhelming — but it doesn’t have to be. HAVAN’s Home Design + Reno Show, happening Sunday, October 5 at the stunning VanDusen Botanical Garden, is your one-stop destination for home design inspiration, expert advice, and trusted connections.

Curated for homeowners actively planning a renovation or custom home, this boutique-style event brings together 25 of Metro Vancouver’s top designers, builders, renovators, and product suppliers — all in one beautiful, relaxed setting. Whether you're dreaming of a modern kitchen, redesigning your home to support multi-generational living, or planning to age in place, you’ll find the insight and expertise to bring your ideas to life.

Presented by the Homebuilders Association Vancouver (HAVAN), and sponsored by Trail Appliances, Dick’s Lumber and Building Supplies, and Western Living Magazine, a highlight of the event is the series of five expert-led panel discussions taking place throughout the day. Each 30-minute session is followed by a 15-minute networking break, giving attendees a chance to connect with panelists and exhibitors directly.
