DesignMarch

DesignMarch is Iceland’s annual design festival – transforming the most northerly capital in the world into one big venue for design. This year's edition will take place from 3 to 7 May with the theme "What now?", reflecting on the unique growth in the Icelandic design scene.

From fashion to furniture, architecture to the environment, food to product design, the festival showcases the best of the local design scene alongside exciting international names. The festival opens with the international conference DesignTalks on 3 May. The day is divided into four sessions that will tackle the question of What now? in different ways.

During the festival over 100 exhibitions, 400 participants and 100 events will reflect what is happening now in the field of design and architecture, provide insight into new solutions and ideas and show new ways of dealing with the challenges of now to inspire guests and participants.
