Starting in Sydney in 2003, the event takes place on alternate years in Sydney and Melbourne.

Saturday in Design involves Australia’s premier designer furniture, finishes, fixtures and lighting showrooms opening their doors on a Saturday to allow architects, designers, students and design-savvy members of the public to enjoy the product they specify, in a showroom environment.

The event has traditionally been an opportunity for local and international products from hundreds of reputed brands to be launched to members of the design community in one day.

It is free for registered attendees and complimentary shuttle buses will run on pre-arranged routes for the entire day to take visitors to the showrooms.
