The Six Cities Design Festival, is Scotland's biggest ever celebration of design. Taking place in each of the country's cities, the Festival consists of hundreds of exhibitions and events which prove how design can make an enormous difference to our lives.
Design isn't just a luxury; it is the careful appliance of creative thinking. Design is a
fundamental part of how we organise the world around us and this Festival brings together everything, from ideas that can save your life, to those simple, clever inventions
which just make you smile. Whether it's a fashion show in Inverness or the chic thrills
of an exhibition about design for air travel in Glasgow, this Festival ranges from the highly personal to the truly global.
Every Scottish city has its own character and that's reflected in the particular events and activities in the Six Cities Design Festival. But all of the events across the Festival share a passion for design that is high in quality and strong on innovation. Featuring a vast range of free events, the Festival aims to engage people in Scotland in talking about how and why good design can help us become happier, and our businesses become more competitive. By inviting as many people as possible to take part, we aim to show how designers are helping Scotland become an even better place to live, work and play. - Nick Barley Director, Six Cities Design Festival
The Six Cities Design Festival is running in Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Inverness and Stirling. There are many events in each city and an information centre for tickets and details. Interesting places to visit for an hour or longer.
