About the event
Before the festival begins, join us for an evening designed to help exhibitors connect, prepare, and get the most out of Detroit Month of Design. Attendance strongly encouraged, as some resources and guidance shared during the event will only be available to those who attend.
This gathering is the primary opportunity for accepted exhibitors, collaborators, and festival staff to come together ahead of September. Meet fellow participants, connect directly with festival staff, discuss logistics and venue opportunities, ask questions, and pick up your first round of promotional materials.
We'll also be sharing important festival updates, exhibitor resources, key deadlines, and other information that will help set you up for a successful festival experience.
We look forward to kicking off the season together!
Please note that this invitation is non-transferable and is valid only for accepted 2026 event organizers.
