The World Architecture Festival is the annual event for architects worldwide. The Festival will celebrate the work, concerns and aspirations of the international architectural community, during a three-day event taking place 22-24 October 2008 in Barcelona.

The Festival will reflect the increasingly international nature of architecture, while also celebrating its regional roots. It will be possible, through the exhibition of awards entries, to compare and contrast different approaches to the design of 96 building types in the 16 categories.

In addition to the awards gallery, other elements of the Festival will include:

• thematic exhibition, ‘Creativity, Capacity, Responsibility’
• live ideas charrette for architecture schools
• architect-nominated product showcase
• city tours and social events
• networking
