Helsinki Design Week, the largest international design and architecture festival in the Nordic countries, is founded, curated and produced by Luovi.

 
 

Held annually in September, the multidisciplinary festival presents design from a number of fields as well as fashion, architecture and urban culture. Helsinki Design Week sheds light to the new faces and phenomena of design, promotes design internationally in collaboration with various partners, and offers citizens a forum to participate in developing and discussing the city and its culture. 

The festival programme contains around 150 events every year, and includes events targeted to both professionals and the general public.

The HDW main events are produced by Luovi Productions and itsfestival’smain partners. The programme is completed with selected events from an open call for programme entries.

The festival programme takes place in a variety of event spaces spread throughout the city: from museums to markets, from seminar halls to secret shops. The festival also actively seeks new spaces and ways to explore the city.
