Visit Downtown Design 2026

Downtown Design, the Middle East's leading design fair and the headline event of Dubai Design Week, will take place from 4-8 November 2026 in the Dubai Design District (d3).

As the anchor event of Dubai Design Week, Downtown Design showcased the latest collections, innovative products, and design solutions presented by internationally renowned design brands and manufacturers, alongside independent designers, collectives, and design studios from the region and beyond.

Complemented by a lineup of creative pop-up concepts, installations, and a program of networking events, talks, and masterclasses at The Forum, the fair was the annual point of connection, bringing together thought leaders and decision-makers from the global design stage every November.
