Visitors can expect to see the work of graduates from disciplines ranging from fashion and ceramics to furniture and industrial design. A mix of art, ceramics, graphic design, jewellery design, textiles and woodwork will also be on display.

Over eight days, the contributing graduates can also take part in a series of programmes that will allow them to network, explore career opportunities, watch talks and take part in various workshops.

The event, for which Dezeen is a media partner, also includes the New Designers Awards Programme that will see 35 prizes given to contributing graduates to boost their move into the industry.
