    Dubai is about to take its vibrant art scene to new heights with the launch of Editions, Dubai, the Middle East’s first-ever limited-edition art and design fair. Taking place from November 6th to 9th in the heart of Dubai Design District (D3), the event will be one of the standout highlights of Dubai Design Week, which is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year. 

    Over 50 galleries, design studios, and creative collectives will showcase an impressive selection of limited-edition works. From ceramics and prints to photography and contemporary design, this fair offers something for everyone. What’s exciting is that the artworks will be available at a variety of price points, making it an inviting space for both established collectors and those just starting.

    But Editions, Dubai is more than just a place to shop for art as it is a part of a much larger movement shaping Dubai’s cultural landscape. Running alongside Downtown Design, the region’s premier contemporary design fair, Editions, Dubai will create a dynamic platform where art and design intersect. Together, these events will foster creative exchange and draw attention to Dubai’s growing influence as a cultural capital.

    Dubai has made a name for itself in the global art world, recently being ranked as the seventh most important art fair city by The Artsy Art Fair Report 2024. This success is no accident. Government initiatives and strategic investments have propelled Dubai’s creative economy forward, attracting international artists, designers, and collectors to the region. Platforms like Dubai Design Week, Downtown Design, and now Editions, Dubai are further solidifying the city’s position as a global leader in art and design.

    Behind Editions, Dubai is the Art Dubai Group, a key player in the region’s art scene since 2007. Known for its world-class events and dedication to fostering cultural dialogue, the Art Dubai Group is continuing its mission with this latest venture, creating new opportunities for local and international creatives to shine.

With its futuristic infrastructure and a community of creatives, it’s a place where collaboration thrives.

    This November, Editions, Dubai is set to become more than just an art fair, it’s a celebration of creativity and innovation, a place where art, design, and culture come together. Whether you’re a long-time collector or someone looking to start your journey, this event will be a must-see, offering an immersive experience of Dubai’s rapidly evolving art and design scene.
