What's On

Running from 23-29 September 2024, Dundee Design Festival is Scotland’s largest design event. Celebrating 10 years of Dundee’s status as the UK’s only UNESCO City of Design and curated by Local Heroes founder Dr Stacey Hunter, the 5th Festival embraces Multiplicity as its theme. This year’s ambitious programme will take over 10,000sqm of space at Michelin Scotland Innovation Parc hosting a week of free exhibitions, activities and immersive installations.

The former factory will be home to work by over 100 designers, each celebrating local, national and international design talent. Showcasing the diversity of design, the festival will recognise the multiplicity of ways that designers and makers contribute to our world. Highlights include Hyper-Local: Objects from the UNESCO Design Cities Network, showing international design objects deeply connected to the places they are from. Powered by clean and renewable energy, the festival’s ambition is to be one of the world’s most sustainable design events. Full programme announced in July 2024 at www.dundeedesignfestival.com
