Melbourne Design Week

Held over 11 days at locations across Victoria, Melbourne Design Week, our brand new member, will take place from May 18th to 28th!

This year’s program expands on the theme of ‘Design the World You Want’ through three new thought-provoking pillars: Transparency, Currency and Legacy.

With over 300 events, explore what’s new in communication design, industrial design, service design, gaming, architecture, landscape architecture, urban design, fashion, craft and functional art.

The program is curated into two streams. There is a stream of local and international exhibitions and presentations organised by the National Gallery of Victoria, which includes the Melbourne Art Book Fair and the Melbourne Design Fair.

There is also the satellite program of events and exhibitions organised by the design community. The satellite program makes up approximately 90 per cent of the program with events held at ateliers, studios, retail spaces, universities, galleries, gardens and public spaces throughout Melbourne and regional Victoria. Participation in the satellite program is via an expression-of-interest.
