Planning to update your digs? Here's something to mark on your calendar: The Vancouver Home + Interior Design Show is coming to BC Place Stadium from Oct. 15 to 18.

The annual exhibition will showcase more than 325 retailers, provide advice from leading home experts and show off the latest products.

This year's celebrity lineup features some big TV names. Ty Pennington, host of Extreme Makeover: Home Editionis the home show's official spokesperson and will make an exclusive appearance on opening night. Meanwhile, Colin and Justin of HGTV's Home Heist will appear Friday and Saturday.

Other highlights include Girls Night Out, which promises "a ton of surprises around the show floor" and a free goody bag for the first 250 ladies to visit the Design Stage (Oct. 15), and Home Buyers + Sellers Day, when you'll have a chance to talk one-on-one with local experts for advice on hitting the home market (Oct. 16). Feeling peckish? Head over to the Food Stage, where you can catch Anthony Sedlak of the Food Network series The Main.

Ticket prices and more info can be found on the show's official website. — Eva Lam
