Between Friday 5th and Thursday 11th June 2009 @ The Old Firestation, Bristol

Following hot on the heels of last year’s success, Bristol Design Festival is back with a vengeance. Not only will visitors see a return of the old favourites, such as the ever popular Grafikea table design competition, the Eco Design Show and a plethora of exciting exhibits to whet your design appetites, but there is a whole host of new initiatives ready to inspire and educate.

“It is great to be back organising the design festival again for a third year.  It has come a very long way since our first exhibition in 2007 with just 25 exhibitors,” says Festival Director, Neil Ferguson. “This year, the festival has grown enormously with 30 venues across Bristol showcasing work from over 500 exceptionally talented companies and designers and we are still only scratching the surface of what is out there.”

The main event, as with the previous two years, will be held at The Fire Station on Silver Street but look out for other exciting events at The Lanes, St Nicholas House, The Create Centre, King Street Studios, Jamaica Street Studios, Bristol City Museum, Diana Porter, The Tobacco Factory, The Grain Barge, Bristol Folk House, The Architecture Centre, Room 212 Gallery, Queens Courtyard and Bristol Royal Infirmary.
