Mark your calendar! Dubai Design Week Set To Return from 8-13 November 2022

Dubai Design Week is returning to Dubai Design District (d3) for its eighth season under the theme Design With Impact; a focus on how design innovation can have a positive effect on the future.

This year’s programme will include over 20 large scale installations developed by world-renowned architecture firms, acclaimed design studios, luxury brands and rising regional talent. Visitors can look forward to installations that transcend technology and sustainability with features such as a two-storey interactive QR code structure and a bamboo and mangrove-made pavilion that acts as an oversized wind chime.

These will be accompanied by a wide range of talks and workshops, exhibitions focusing on the future of design - including an interactive exhibition that pushes the boundaries of design through Web 3 technology - and the Design Market that will offer a retail experience full of homegrown offerings from homewares to ready-to-wear.

Also returning to the Waterfront Terrace in d3, Downtown Design, the Middle East's leading fair for contemporary and high-quality design, will host its most extensive edition to date with a line-up of leading international speakers, designers and global brands taking part for the first time.

The free-to-attend programme will be revealed on 15 October.
