When is the premiere?

New episodes of Home Town premiere Sunday, Jan. 7 at 8:00 PM ET on HGTV. According to HGTV, “In the season opener Ben is recovering from shoulder surgery so he enlists his best friends Jim Rasberry and Josh Nowell to help Erin renovate a home for a family looking to escape the cold Canadian winters. The new Laurel residents are hoping Ben and Erin can find them a property with enough outdoor space for their family of six to enjoy their new southern digs.”

The new episodes beginning in January are technically the final episodes of Season 7. The season 7 finale is scheduled for April 21, and season 8 is scheduled to premiere later in 2024. In a press release announcing the new episodes, HGTV said that fans can expect “an additional 20 episodes slated to air” this year.
