Imagine a better future through creativity, innovation and design at Fremantle Design Week 2026.
Returning to Walyalup/Fremantle from 16-25 October, Western Australia’s premier celebration of design transforms the port city into a vibrant hub of ideas, inspiration and creative discovery.
Across ten days, explore more than 60 exhibitions, talks, tours, workshops, open studios and special events that showcase the people and projects shaping the future of design.
This year’s theme, Imagine, invites audiences to consider how design can help create a healthier, more equitable and optimistic future. From architecture and interiors to product design, art, sustainability and innovation, the festival brings together leading Western Australian creatives alongside some of Australia’s most influential design voices.
Highlights include the major exhibitions Imagine: Material Stories at PS Art Space and Reverie at The Naval Store, alongside behind-the-scenes studio tours, hands-on workshops, thought-provoking conversations and opportunities to connect with the designers, makers and creative thinkers driving change.
Whether you’re a design professional, creative enthusiast or simply curious about new ideas, Fremantle Design Week offers a unique opportunity to experience the city’s thriving creative culture and discover how design is helping shape the world around us.
