The Ideal Home Show is the place to find the latest in home furnishings as this famous show fills up the Earl's Court Exhibition Centre with everything you need to feather your nest - and a whole lot more besides. Celebrating its 103rd year, the Ideal Home Show is the world's largest event of its kind and never fails to surprise and inspire with home decorating ideas and the latest gadgets for the kitchen. The multi award winning show features full-scale model show houses and eight themed sections: Ideal Home Improvements, Ideal Village, Ideal Food, Ideal Gardens, Ideal Shopping, Ideal Woman, Ideal Home Gadgets, and Ideal Interiors. Last year celebrity presenters including Channel 4's Home Show star George Clarke, Master Chef's Gregg Wallace, GMTV's Fiona Philips and interior designer Linda Barker were among the experts who hosted workshops and handed out home improvements advice; this year is also set to have a number of familiar faces on hand. With over 800 exhibitors there are ideas galore and products to suit all styles and tastes. March is traditionally the time for a spring clean - so why not spruce up your home while you're at it? Visit the show after 5pm on Thursday and tickets are just a fiver.About Earls Court Exhibition Centre
