Seed Festival
Perugia
14 – 17 October
2026
The Seed Festival returns to Perugia in October for its fourth edition, offering four days of interdisciplinary dialogue. More than just an event, Seed serves as a cultural platform: a space where designers, architects, engineers and urban planners engage in dialogue with artists, scientists, philosophers, psychologists, economists, academics and entrepreneurs. The aim is not merely to facilitate the convergence of knowledge, but to trigger processes of hybridisation and critical reflection capable of generating new design trajectories, challenging disciplinary boundaries and established practices.
Theme of the 2026
The 2026 edition of Seed is dedicated to the concept of humanity and aims to explore the fragile balance between our social nature and the challenges of the contemporary world, marked by a growing loss of physical reality and a progressive removal of the Other.
