The Big Design Market Melbourne

Royal Exhibition Building

Melbourne's most iconic festive shopping extravaganza is back at the Royal Exhibition Building, bringing together over 280 of Australia's most exciting independent designers and makers, all under one very beautiful roof. From contemporary Australian fashion and statement jewellery to sculptural ceramics, beautiful homewares, original art, colourful accessories, innovative lifestyle products, designer stationery, beauty, kids, pet wares and so much more, discover an incredible lineup of returning favourites and exciting new brands. Step inside a spectacular large-scale art installation by celebrated Australian artist Em Hatton, whose bold, colourful and wonderfully playful world will come to life beneath the iconic dome of the Royal Exhibition Building. Indulge in gourmet feasts, sip on boutique wines and artisanal cocktails, and kick off the weekend in style with vibrant Friday Night Drinks. Plus, snap up the legendary Designer Showbags, enter the major prize draw, discover the all-new Curl Club, and let the little ones get creative in a dedicated kids' space. It's the ultimate festive shopping experience - bursting with creativity, delicious discoveries and seriously good design. Just in time to tick off your Christmas list (or completely forget about it and treat yourself). Save the date, gather your shopping crew and get ready for three big days of festive fun.
