The London Design Festival taking place from September 19th to the 27th 2009, is the UK’s biggest annual celebration of design and reflects London’s status as the world creative hub. It is made up of the widest possible range of design disciplines, all of who prosper in the city. These new ideas and activities make each Festival dynamic, different and uniquely London. Supported by government, the design sector, and leading businesses, the Festival offers a platform for the best design talent.
The Festival inspires and engages. In particular, it supports emerging talent that reflects London’s diverse influences. Acting as an platform brand, the Festival works with national museums, retailers, universities, trade shows, magazines, international design businesses and of course individual designers, all of who contribute excellence to the Festival programme.
The Festival works year-round with key London venues and spaces such as Trafalgar Square, Southbank Centre, the V&A and Somerset House to programme engaging design-related content that reflects London’s diverse design story, and makes it a global destination for new ideas and talent.
