Features A celebration of design in all its forms: Recap of World Design Festival powered by Tijuana Design Week

In May 2024, Tijuana was the center of attention as our community celebrated its vibrant arts and design scene during the World Design Festival, powered by Tijuana Design Week. In partnership with Enigma Creative, this five-day event showcased over 100 events across 40 venues, centered around the theme “Expanded Present: Intertwining Past, Present, and Future through Design.”

More than 8,000 attendees explored interactive workshops, toured studios and showrooms, and listened to presentations from leading designers, artists, and architects.

Similar to World Design Experience during San Diego Design Week, World Design Festival is one of the seven signature events of World Design Capital 2024. It celebrates the San Diego-Tijuana region by highlighting our design achievements, fostering connections through design, and inspiring collaborative efforts to address our community’s challenges.
