Build It Live returns to the South West next Weekend

The UK’s most practical self build and renovation show returns to Westpoint Arena in Exeter next weekend on 7 and 8 September 2024.

Build It Live brings together everything you need under one roof to help make a building project a success. Listen to real life stories from self builders featured in Build it Magazine. At the Exeter show hear from a florist and surfing instructor who used local labour and natural, sustainable materials to turn a classic barn into an idyllic Cornish home.

Over the course of two days, meet hundreds of local and national suppliers who will be showcasing all the latest products and technology. Sit down for free impartial one-to-one consultations with industry experts and attend informative live talks about everything from finding land to designing your own home and gaining planning consent.

The Build It Live shows are ideal for anyone planning a self build, renovating a property or looking to add space, light and value to a current home. Spend a day or two at the show and come away with new ideas to help create your dream home.

Chris Batesmith, Content Editor at Build It Magazine which organises the Build It Live Shows said:

“All our shows provide a one-stop shop for all things self build, renovation and home improvement. Each show is designed to provide inspiration, advice and information to make your property project a success. Our Land Zone is the perfect place to visit to find a building plot as there will be access to ‘Plotbrowser’, our free online plot finding service which lists 1000s of self build plots and redevelopment opportunities.

“At Build It magazine we have been providing expert guidance to self builders and renovators for over 30 years and our shows are another way we can help self builders and renovators create their own dream home.”

The popular Sustainable Building Products Pavilion will also be returning to the Exeter show with advice on how to create a truly sustainable, healthy home whether building a new home from scratch or renovating an older property.
