Clerkenwell Design Week (CDW), the UK’s leading design festival, returns to London between 23 –25 May 2023 – with a stronger-than-ever programme including the exciting addition of Design London.
“With the global design community descending on London in May, Clerkenwell Design Week is the perfect new home for Design London,” said Marlon Cera-Marle, Design Division Director of Media 10. “Amalgamating Design London [which was formerly held in Greenwich in September] into the programme of events further bolsters the experience of Clerkenwell Design Week, as the most anticipated design destination after Milan.”
The 12th edition of CDW will again take place in the heart of Clerkenwell – historically a melting pot of craftsmen and makers, and now home to more creative businesses and architects per square mile than anywhere else in the world. The 2023 festival is set to offer the biggest programme to date – with more than 600 events taking place across the EC1 neighbourhood.
Since inception in 2009, CDW has established itself as one of the foremost independent festivals in the global design calendar, championing design excellence, creativity and innovations.
Cera-Marle said: “We’re thrilled to be back with Clerkenwell Design Week this May. CDW is always known for being one of the key destinations for specification – as well as discovering new talent and ideas – for architects, interior designers and creative minds alike.”
“This year we have a strong line-up of brands, partners and speakers joining our programme – which we look forward to announcing in spring. From product showcases to one-off installations, headline talks to networking events, CDW 2023 will bring some of the most exciting and forward-thinking content to Clerkenwell – while celebrating the best of design and creativity from around the world.”
