LOS ANGELES
DESIGN FESTIVAL
Founded in 2011, the Los Angeles Design Festival is more than a weekend—it’s a global platform for creative exploration, cultural exchange, and design as a tool for transformation. From architecture and storytelling to systems thinking and public space, LADF celebrates the power of design to shape not just objects, but futures.
Anchored in Los Angeles and open to the world, the biennial festival brings together bold thinkers, makers, and communities across disciplines. In between festivals, LADF keeps the momentum going through year-round programs, partnerships, and conversations.
