VIENNA DESIGN WEEK 2024
Various locations
September 20 – 29, 2024

Why do we love some objects in particular, how can design help us live together and protect the planet, and what is beautiful about the work of designers – the VIENNA DESIGN WEEK has set itself the goal of examining the role of design in society. It does so throughout the city, both locally and internationally, with as passion as seriousness, with free admission, and an exciting program for everyone – from children to design professionals.

Austria’s largest curated design festival has been taking place since 2007, with around 200 events and 40,000 visitors most recently. Over ten days every autumn, the VIENNA DESIGN WEEK showcases that Vienna is a City Full of Design. The festival goes where the people are: in public spaces and places which are not considered design hotspots. There, critical yet playful discussions, low-threshold outreach programs or professional discourse enable new perspectives on objects, contexts, and production processes.

Product, furniture, and industrial design, architecture, graphic, circular, and social design as well as experimental and digital approaches are the focus of the VIENNA DESIGN WEEK. The festival is a platform for designers and companies to present themselves and network locally and internationally. At the same time, the VIENNA DESIGN WEEK specifically commissions experimental projects and initiates topics to not only show what already exists but to broaden our horizons. Celebrating the joy of design together!
