Design Week Lagos 2025 (DWL) is a citywide celebration of creativity and innovation that transforms Lagos into a living, breathing canvas of design. Inspired by global models such as Milan Design Week and London Design Festival, this festival activates the entire city — from showrooms and schools to galleries and restaurants — with a programme of exhibitions, talks, tours, installations and product launches.

Founded to champion African design, this festival serves as a critical platform that supports regional creatives, promotes local industries, and positions Lagos as a global design capital. It unites architects, interior designers, product designers, innovators and thought leaders across disciplines to engage, inspire and build an inclusive design future.

Design Week Lagos 2025 not only highlights the richness of Africa’s cultural heritage, but also fosters forward-thinking innovation, driving design-led economic growth and industry transformation across the continent.
