Designregio Kortrijk
From 17 October to 3 November 2024, WONDER in the Kortrijk city centre pushes the boundaries of your imagination.
Young creative force and established names from all walks of life and disciplines – from design, innovation, technology to art – will present their vision of a better future.
WONDER takes you along a free tour of special places in Kortrijk UNESCO City of Design, with stunning exhibitions, installations and events.
This makes WONDER more than ever a unique platform where work, ideas and projects of artists, designers, students, citizens as well as companies, schools and organisations come together and are connected. WONDER inspires and invites visitors to shape the future together with guts and creativity.
This year, an open call was used for the 2nd time, where everyone had the chance to submit an initiative. With great success, as the organisation received more than 150 entries. After selection by a jury, a first part of the programme can now be presented. The beating heart of WONDER will once again be at the Budafabriek. From there, visitors will be able to follow a route of more than 20 locations (divided over three hubs: BUDA, CITY & LOOF) along more than 40 exhibits or installations. This year’s festival also unpacks with some content tracks, along “digital”, “circular”, “product innovation”, “art” & “kids” highlights.
