Jaipur has always been designed. What shall we design next?
From its city plan to its living crafts, Jaipur carries design in its DNA. As the city turns 299 on 18 November 2026, JDF brings its creative community together to imagine what comes next.
The festival's vision is to establish Jaipur as India's leading Design City, with a platform that connects heritage, crafts, innovation, tourism and sustainable development.
