Bangkok Design Week 2027
Bangkok Design Week reaches its tenth edition from 18 to 28 February 2027 across the city’s creative districts. Its theme, DESIGN TO LAST: Ever Evolving, Everlasting, asks how to design lives, careers, businesses and cities that stand the test of time in uncertain days: what lasts is neither what clings to past success nor what adapts only to survive, but what stays flexible, builds on what exists and evolves with its context without losing its core values. The festival connects creators, businesses and communities across generations and industries and takes Thai creativity to the world. Programmes and venues will be announced later.
