Open call: Design Week South Africa 2025

Following a successful debut, applications are now open for those looking to participate in this dynamic celebration of creativity and innovation.

With a focus on Space Sharing, Growing Collaboratively, Future Archives, and Game Changing, Design Week South Africa provides an opportunity for creatives across various disciplines—including music, architecture, fashion, and urban planning—to engage with industry leaders, collaborate on transformative projects, and gain local and international exposure.

Design Week South Africa is a platform dedicated to celebrating design as an expression of creative thinking and making, jumpstarting collaboration, encouraging informative dialogue and open-source knowledge share, while cultivating the next generation of creative leaders through inclusivity and support. Their mission is to create South Africa’s leading design platform.

“Don’t miss the chance to be part of this evolving design movement,” the organisers said. “Apply now to contribute to a programme of exhibitions, workshops, discussions, and immersive experiences that will shape the future of design.”

Interested artists should apply here before 30 April.
