Design POP is an architecture, design and food festival that celebrates creativity, collaboration and Cork city. Design POP seeks to expose the public to architecture, food and design through a series of architectural pavilions, events, talks and conversations over a weekend in August from the 27th to the 30th. The event is about creating an atmosphere of wonder and joy in public realm spaces with pavilions and events popping up in different locations around Cork.

The activities and events' covid implications

Abiding by the current COVID-19 regulations, each event will be 45 minutes long and restricted to a capacity depending on the venue. After each 45 minute event, the staff will clean and sanitize the seating and venue to have it ready for the next speaker or panel discussion. There will be a number of sanitizing stations throughout the venue and organisers request everyone who enters the venue to wear a mask.
 PLEASE respect the Design  POP volunteers and staff. 

FREE TALKS + PANEL DISCUSSIONS:
The talks, panel discussion and workshops that are not marked as (Ticketed) are free! This means we are operating a first-come, first-served structure. Once capacity has been reached we cannot let anyone else enter the venue.
