From curated exhibitions and urban installations to guided tours through independent spaces and architecture studios, Romanian Design Week 2025 brings together over 150 organizations. The festival activates the city for 10 days through six formats dedicated to this year’s theme “Design Tomorrow, Today.”
Organized by The Institute and presented by UniCredit Bank, Romanian Design Week 2025 launches one of its most extensive editions dedicated to collaboration, sustainability, and visionary ideas that reshape the city.
With a program curated entirely through local and international partnerships, RDW 2025 offers a complete urban experience where design breaks out of its usual boundaries and engages directly with the public.
The main venues of this year’s edition are the former CINA restaurant building (10 Benjamin Franklin Street), the ground floor of the National Gallery of the National Museum of Art of Romania (49–53 Calea Victoriei), and Casa Fratelii, located at 9 Episcopiei Street.
The festival can be explored daily across more than 140 events throughout the city and at the three main RDW 2025 venues. Access conditions vary by location. Tickets for the exhibitions hosted at the former CINA restaurant can be purchased online here. Entry is free for students, pensioners, and people with disabilities.
