For the first time, FIND - Design Fair Asia, the international event dedicated to design and furnishings, is coming to Thailand. The event will take place from November 26 to 28, 2026, in Bangkok at the QSNCC - Queen Sirikit National Convention Center, marking a new chapter in the exhibition's international development.

The Thai edition will be entirely organized by Fiera Milano Asia Pacific, the new company established by Fiera Milano last year with the aim of strengthening the Group’s presence in Asian markets and developing new exhibition platforms dedicated to design and the creative industries. The initiative has also supported by the strategic partnership with TIDA – Thailand Interior Designers’ Association, one of the country’s leading professional organizations, active nationwide and playing a key role in promoting design culture, innovation, and project development across Southeast Asia.

The choice of Thailand is no coincidence. In recent years, the country has emerged as one of the most dynamic markets in Southeast Asia for design, hospitality, and the furniture industry, while also serving as a strategic hub for accessing the entire Asean region, which includes over 670 million people across 10 member states. According to leading industry analyses, the furniture and interior design market in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region is currently valued at approximately USD 260 billion, and is expected to reach USD 470 billion by 2032, with some of the highest growth rates globally. In particular, Southeast Asia (Asean) represents one of the most dynamic growth areas: the region’s furniture market is projected to reach USD 248 billion by 2027, with an average annual growth rate exceeding 8%. The interior design services sector also shows very strong prospects: the Asia-Pacific market is expected to reach USD 40–45 billion by 2030, driven by the expansion of residential construction, tourism, and the development of new commercial and hospitality projects.

Bangkok plays a central role in this landscape. The city is undergoing rapid urban transformation, fueled by significant investments in real estate, hospitality, and interior design projects. Thanks to its geographic position and the strong growth of tourism, real estate development, and infrastructure, Bangkok is consolidating its role as one of the leading regional hubs for the hospitality and design industries in Southeast Asia. In this context, FIND – Design Fair Asia Thailand Edition positions itself as a new window onto international design, fostering connections between European companies, design studios, developers, and buyers from across the Asean region.

The event will be conceived as a hub for networking and cultural exchange, featuring international exhibitors, B2B meetings, talks, and in-depth sessions focused on emerging trends in living, hospitality, and contemporary architecture.

Particular attention will be given to Italian design, globally recognized as a benchmark for quality, innovation, and design culture. The event aims to strengthen relationships between the European design system and Italian design in particular, and one of the most promising markets worldwide.

Thanks to the strategic support of TIDA – Thailand Interior Designers’ Association, a leading organization in promoting design culture, innovation, and creative practice in Southeast Asia, FIND strengthens its positioning as an international platform for connection and development.

Through TIDA, the event will facilitate dialogue among key industry players through targeted B2B meetings, promote professional development opportunities, and host the presentation of Awards aimed at recognizing excellence and setting new standards across various fields of global design.

Furthermore, this synergy will foster direct connections between local designers and international brands, making a tangible contribution to the growth of an increasingly open, dynamic, and global creative ecosystem.
