Dutch Design Week 2026 2026

Dutch Design Week 2026 (DDW) is the largest design event in Northern Europe, held annually across the city of Eindhoven in the Netherlands. For nine days the whole city is dedicated to design, with exhibitions, installations, lectures, award ceremonies, debates, networking events, and festivities spread across roughly 120 locations, anchored by the Strijp-S creative district. DDW presents the work and ideas of more than 2500 designers to hundreds of thousands of visitors, with a strong focus on experimentation, the designers of the future, and design as a driver of social and technological change. The programme spans product and industrial design, social and speculative design, sustainability and circular design, technology and digital design, graphic and communication design, and design education and talent.
