Cardiff Design Festival is an annual celebration of design in October. There’s a programme of design related events that inform, inspire and provoke. And The Best of Welsh Design is showcase of design talent in Wales.

There is a wealth of talented designers and design thinkers in the city and across Wales and it’s the festival’s mission to ensure that their skills and passion are recognised and valued by the public and by business as well as by fellow design professionals.

The Festival provides a spotlight on the design sector and shows how design affects every aspect of our lives from the beds we sleep in to the way cereal packets keep our breakfast fresh, how journeys to work are signposted and our work places are designed.

The design community organises a series of talks, exhibitions and events that will run from 30th September to 15th October this year and whether you’re a designer or not you’ll love what has been lined up. Go to the website for list of events.
