Kyoto YouMe Triennale returns to Kyoto from October 8 to 18, 2026, bringing together art, design and craft. Conceived as an international platform for “making,” the Triennale explores how creative practice can generate new value, meaning, and connections across cultures and disciplines.

Rooted in Kyoto’s intersection of deep history and contemporary creativity, the Triennale positions the act of making as a shared cultural language, fostering new conversations around art, design, craft, and the future. The 2026 edition brings diverse perspectives into dialogue, reexamining the relationship between tradition, innovation, and industry.
