The Ideal Home Show is the biggest event in the property calendar
The Daily Mail Ideal Home Show has become the biggest event in the property exhibition calendar, and this year's show will be no different.

In keeping with the show's theme of 'Recycling in the Home', interior designer Oliver Heath and Penny Poyzer of No Waste Like Home will be offering top tips on how to 'go green' and on making the most of your household waste.

Visitors to the show will also be able to pick up exclusive tips from Property Ladder's Sarah Beeny and design consultant Naomi Cleaver, while celebrity chefs Antony Worrall-Thompson and James Martin will be preparing many delicious recipes.

A 16-metre high waterfall set among a rainforest backdrop will be the exhibition's central feature, showcasing a host of exotic plantation, jungle hideaways and a spectacular tree house.

The exhibition will feature two spectacular show homes, providing everything from designs of the future, to how to incorporate recycling and sustainability into your home.

If it is the future you are interested in then the concept living area will be worth a visit, embracing how to recycle without compromising on style, and showing off the latest concept products. Gadget-lovers should also visit the Gadget Zone, which will be dedicated to the latest hi-tech home products.

For lovers of the outdoors, City Gardener Matt James will be providing expert advice and there will be an array of unique garden designs to view.

DIYers should head to the Real Homes Masterclass Theatre for masterclasses with a series of celebrity demonstrators, while they can pick up the latest colour tips at Crown Town, where advisers will be on hand to help people choose the perfect colours.
