Birmingham Design Festival Conference 2025

BDF Conference is a celebration of design held in Birmingham across two days in June.

Every year we alternate between hosting a festival and a conference, offering an opportunity to offer something a little different with the format to keep things fresh and engaging.

BDF Conference returns in 2025, taking the best bits of the Birmingham Design Festival and condensing it into a smaller format that’s just as fun and accessible. You can expect a host of familiar faces and exceptional design talent to learn from this year in June.

You can expect a day of talks from some of our favourite designers in the world, delivered in one venue, in addition to a day of fun workshops if you fancy getting more practical.
