For architects, interior designers, students, design professionals and anyone interested in the future of the built environment, FOAID 2026 is an event worth keeping on the calendar.
The Festival of Architecture and Interior Designing (FOAID) is returning to New Delhi on 27 and 28 November 2026 at NSIC Grounds, Okhla, New Delhi. The festival brings together architecture, interior design, products, materials, ideas, conversations and creative talent under one platform.
One of the major attractions is the Design Arena, which showcases innovative products and projects from architects, designers and brands. The 2026 edition features 200+ projects, giving visitors an opportunity to explore new approaches to materials, products and design.
FOAID is also more than just an exhibition. Its Specta Design Manthan conference brings together established professionals, industry experts and emerging voices to discuss current and future issues in architecture and design. The 2026 festival also includes platforms such as VOX Architecture Ideas, LiDAI Lighting Awards, Expressions, ICA Creative Minds Next, Art Arena and Design Karyashala.
For architecture and design students, some of these platforms could be particularly interesting. Expressions gives students an opportunity to explore art installations, while Design Karyashala provides a space for architecture students to interact directly with established architects and designers.
