Early-bird ticket sales now open for Design Indaba Festival 2018

3 Nov 2017

Known as the conference on creativity, Design Indaba's flagship event has evolved into so much more than a conference. More than a series of talks, it provides a stage for an explosion of creativity in an immersive experience that includes live music, performance and theatre, fashion shows, product launches, dance, projection mapping and surprise appearances by creative industry leaders.

In addition to the conference event, Design Indaba curates an unexpected selection of music, performance and art installations to create an inimitable sensorial experience for festival goers. The lineup expands the continent and beyond, with highlights coming from unknown talents around Africa, special performances by selected conference speakers, and a range of local and international artists breaking boundaries.

Performances take place at the Artscape Theatre Centre over the speaker programme breaks and in the evening, they will open up to the public to turn the Artscape Piazza into a festival space of revelry, creativity and dynamic exchange.
