Wondering what Antwerp Design Week is all about? Each year, the city transforms into a vibrant design destination, where creativity, craftsmanship and innovation come together across different districts.

What is Antwerp Design Week?

Antwerp Design Week is a city-wide design event where showrooms, brands, and creatives open their doors to present new collections, ideas, and collaborations.

Who is it for?

From architects and interior designers to retailers and passionate design lovers, Antwerp Design Week is for anyone seeking inspiration, new connections and fresh perspectives.

What makes it different?

What is there to do?

Across the city, you can discover new collections, explore a wide range of showrooms, attend events, experience installations and connect with both established brands and emerging talent.

How do you plan your visit?

With so much to see, planning ahead is key. Map out your route, select the brands or districts you want to visit, and create your own journey through Antwerp.

What about the shuttles? (for professionals only!)

To make getting around easy, shuttle services connect the different districts, allowing you to move seamlessly between locations and experience more throughout your visit.

Whether you’re an architect, a retailer, or simply a design lover, Antwerp Design Week is your chance to explore, be inspired, and connect with the world of contemporary design. Plan your visit, follow your curiosity, and get ready to discover the city like never before. See you in Antwerp!
