12th – 15th March 2020 | Shanghai World Expo Exhibition and Convention Center
(Shanghai, 18 November 2019) The highly anticipated Design Shanghai celebrates its 7th year from 12th – 15th March 2020 at its brand new venue: the Shanghai World Expo Exhibition and Convention Center. Welcoming 70,000 professionals and visitors over five day, Design Shanghai showcases more than 500 local and international brands from 30 countries and regions, never-before-seen installations, and a world-renowned talk programme ‘The Forum’.
THE SCALE OF THE EXHIBITION CONTINUES TO EXPAND AND BREAK BOUNDARIES
With the increasing number of global exhibitors and visitors, in just six years Design Shanghai has fast become an unmissable event in the design calendar, further strengthening China's position as a key emerging design market. For the 2020 edition, Design Shanghai will take place in the landmark Shanghai World Expo Exhibition and Convention Center in Pudong District, increasing the overall exhibition area by 40% since last year.
"In terms of design and creativity, the Asian market, especially the Chinese market, has been booming in recent years," said Zhuo Tan, director of design Shanghai. “As an important annual design event in Asia, design Shanghai has become one of the major design events in the global design calendar, showcasing not only the standards of global design, but also the dynamic power of new design in China. We are very pleased that Design Shanghai will be expanded to a higher level. In keeping with the high standard and international vision of the exhibition over the past six years, we are committed to bringing in more international design brands, galleries and designers from home and abroad to inject a new look into design Shanghai for the first time."
