The festival takes place over four days, from 1-4 May 2025, and in a variety of locations across the city. Some events are ticketed and require pre-registration, while others are open and do not require pre-registration. The best place to start is by taking a look at the agenda.
During the festival you can visit the Design Victoria info booth at the Rotunda, 1515 Douglas Street, where you can pick up a map and talk to someone about how to take part in the festival and what events are open each day.
All ticketed events, mostly free and some paid, will open on Wednesday April 2nd at noon. Sign up for our newsletter to be the first to hear about exclusive offers and get access to free, ticketed events.
