It is one of the seven annual events produced live by Strasbourg Events. Just after the Egast fair – which attracted nearly 25,000 visitors in mid-March on the occasion of its 40th anniversary, it’s time to reconfigure the Exhibition Centre into a Home Show mode. “It never stops!” confirms Souhire Ehresmann, director of events organized by Strasbourg Events.
From April 10 to 13, 130 professionals in the fields of real estate, construction, renovation, interior and exterior design, decoration, and energy savings will showcase their offerings on approximately 10,000 m2 at the Strasbourg Exhibition Centre.
Nearly 60 new exhibitors
“Half of them come back year after year,” emphasizes Souhire Ehresmann, who sees in this loyalty, as in the longevity of a show that will be in its 29th edition, proof that both professionals and individuals find it beneficial. “The core of loyal exhibitors does not prevent renewal. With 60 new exhibitors and increased space allocated to local companies and know-how, ‘we have further enriched the offer, to better address current concerns,” she explains.
Given the rise in fuel and gas prices, questions related to energy renovation will inevitably be at the heart of interests. The French Passive Construction Federation will be participating in the fair. Visitors will benefit from valuable advice from the Climate Agency, France Rénov’, the public service dedicated to renovation and improvement of housing, and Oktave, the regional dedicated tool. “For the first time, we will also welcome UFC – Que Choisir, which will bring its independent and clear view on consumption choices related to housing,” emphasizes Souhire Ehresmann.
“The goal is to offer free advice to visitors and secure their renovation journey. They need to be able to meet here, in confidence, reliable, identified and locally established professionals. We are very attentive to this aspect,” insists the one who knows that the credibility of the fair is also at stake.
In line with current trends, Souhire Ehresmann also highlights a new, more environmentally responsible offer. Illustrated notably by the presence of “Paysagistes à Vélo,” a Strasbourg-based landscaping company that uses bicycles to promote an ecological and responsible approach to outdoor space maintenance. Or by the company Dard des Villes, based in Lingolsheim, “which notably offers roof cleaning using a drone,” she adds.
Workshops and conferences
Another hallmark of the Strasbourg Home Show is its activities. Interior design coaching, DIY and creative leisure, creation of stabilized plant pictures, stone sculpture demonstrations are notably on the program, as well as workshops.
As for conferences, they will focus on best practices and the support and financing schemes for energy renovation in 2026, pitfalls to avoid in terms of solar equipment or renovation, outdoor spaces facing climate change, or the best way to ‘reveal the invisible potential of [one’s] interior.’ In 2025, the Home Show had welcomed around 6,500 visitors.
Home Show, from Friday, April 10 to Sunday, April 12 from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Monday, April 13 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., at the Exhibition Centre, avenue Herrenschmidt in Strasbourg.
