Ready to leave your mark?

We are looking for bold and visionary designers to co-create one of the three landmark installations of Antwerp Design Week 2026.

 

Each installation should address a societal design theme such as functionality, sustainability, circularity, ecological innovation, or recycling.

 

Do you want to be part of this story?
Applications are open until December 2025.

Got a square meter left?

We’re looking for central Antwerp locations willing to host design brands that don’t have their own space. Have a showroom, studio, or corner that could welcome a designer during ADW? Let’s match!

2

Students: step into the world of design!

Throughout the year, we’re always looking for motivated students: in graphic design, strategy, event production, accounting, and more. Want to get hands-on experience and be part of a design event?

Volunteers during ADW

(30 May – 3 June)

Got time, energy, and a big smile? We need enthusiastic volunteers to help out during the event. From guiding visitors to supporting events: there’s a role for everyone!

Let’s talk design.

During Antwerp Design Week, The Club once again becomes the stage for a series of inspiring talks, lectures and conversations.

 

Think back to the intimate and visionary atmosphere of past sessions — like the one with Sabine Marcelis and Max Fräser.

Are you working on the future of design? An expert in sustainable materials, Belgian aesthetics or innovative applications?

Or do you have a fresh, surprising perspective on design you’d love to share? We’d love to hear from you.

Each proposal is reviewed individually — from content to format and conditions.

Antwerp Design Week is growing and we’d love for you to grow with us.
Whether you’ve got a creative space in the city, fresh talent to share, or simply some time and energy to spare: this is your moment to join the ride.
