Design Victoria
About the Festival
Design Victoria is a four-day festival celebrating the city’s growing design community — from architecture and interiors to fashion, graphic design, furniture, product design, ceramics, and more. Across the city, designers and creative businesses host exhibitions, open studios, installations, tours, and workshops that invite the public to experience design up close.
Festival Overview
Now in its fourth year, Design Victoria transforms the city into a celebration of creativity and design. Visitors can explore studios not normally open to the public, discover the stories
behind local design businesses, and experience the ideas shaping Victoria’s creative future.
About the Vision
Design Victoria’s vision is to fill the city with inspiring and accessible ways to experience design — from architecture and fashion to public space and emerging creative practices. The festival strengthens Victoria’s creative economy by connecting designers, businesses, and the public through shared experiences.
Impact
First launched in 2023, Design Victoria welcomed more than 5,500 attendees in 2025 across dozens of free events throughout the city — most within walking distance of downtown.
