Finders Keepers

The Melbourne Design Market returns 9 - 11 October with 200+ designers and independent makers for a three-day celebration of mindfully made, good design.

For 18 years, this is where emerging talent has launched, limited editions sell out and design lovers secured what’s next, first. 

Come for the discovery, stay for the food and drink, leave with something no one else has.

LOW SENSORY HOUR
A low sensory hour will be hosted on Sunday from 9am-10am, and you can get your ticket here. It includes your general admission so you can stay after the hour if you wish. The lights will be dimmed, music low or off, and noise and crowd levels kept low during this hour for those who may benefit from reduced sensory stimulation.

ABOUT THE FINDERS KEEPERS
The original festival-style design market, for 18 years this has been the place where emerging talent launches and design lovers discover what’s next, first. 

Part launchpad, part treasure hunt, part creative hangout, we connect independent designers with a community that loves good design and mindful making. Expect thoughtfully made objects for home and life, small-batch food and drink, and one-off pieces you won’t find online.  

Be sure to follow us for all the event updates on Instagram and Facebook and sign up for our newsletter here.

We can't wait to see you soon!
