The Southern Ideal Home Show Announces Fall Show Featuring Love It or List It’s Hilary Farr

RALEIGH, N.C. – (July 22, 2015) – The Southern Ideal Home Show, the Triangle’s largest home and garden event, is gearing up for its fall show Sept. 25-27 in Raleigh. The three-day showcase will be held at the North Carolina State Fairgrounds and will feature more than 300 top area professionals in home and garden.

Headlining this year’s show is celebrity guest Hilary Farr, International Interior Designer and co-host of HGTV’s Love it or List It. Love It or List It features Farr and real estate agent David Visentin as they compete for the affections of fed-up homeowners looking to either renovate or sell, and is currently filming in the Raleigh area. Farr renovates the couples’ current home while Visentin attempts to convince them selling is the better option. Farr will share her design expertise, tips and tricks at two Question and Answer sessions on Saturday, Sept. 26 at noon and 3:30 p.m.

Guests are encouraged to come with their to-do lists as this year’s show will feature more ideas and solutions than ever before. The show will spotlight what’s trending in building and home improvement, living green, kitchen and bath, outdo or living, interior decorating and more. The Home Show will also showcase the second annual Brews & Bites, where guests will enjoy locally-crafted beers with savory foods created by top chefs and businesses in the Triangle.
