The Big Design Market Melbourne 2022

Overview

Christmas shopping can be one of the most hectic tasks leading up to the holiday season, but the good news is that The Big Design Market Melbourne is officially back after a three-year hiatus.

Scheduled to set up camp for three days at the Royal Exhibition Building in Carlton, the market will feature more than 270 design stalls spanning designer homeware, limited-edition art prints, local fashion, jewellery, stationery and more⁠.

Elsewhere, a slew of tastemakers will serve up exceptional culinary experiences at the food emporium including coffee from the classic ST. ALi, savoury pies from Footscray's iconic Pie Thief, fresh Portuguese tarts from Natas & Co and innovative cocktails from Sydney's Archie Rose Distilling Co and Original Spirit Co.

Celebrating 10 years, The Big Design Market has also teamed up with One Billion Stars for Weaving Day this December. Guests are welcome to take part in a free workshop led by Maryann Talia Pau – a Samoan-Australian artist and weaver – where they will learn how to create an eight-pointed star to support One Billion Stars' goal: to weave one billion stars by 2032 to raise awareness for violence-free communities.

The Big Design Market will run from Friday, December 2–Sunday, December 4 at the Royal Exhibition Building, Carlton. Tickets are now available to purchase online.
