West Bund Art & Design 2025
13–16 November 2025Since its inception in 2014, West Bund Art & Design has established itself as one of Asia’s preeminent art fairs, anchoring Shanghai’s cultural landscape along the government-backed ‘West Bund Cultural Corridor.’ This dynamic platform unites international and local galleries in presenting exceptional modern and contemporary artworks to the region. A highlight of the fair is xiàn chăng, an ambitious program showcasing monumental, site-specific installations by international artists both within and beyond the fair venues.
Despite the urban redevelopment changes affecting gallery spaces in the West Bund area in 2024, the fair continues to transform the district into a compelling destination each November, solidifying Shanghai’s position as an essential stop on the global art calendar.
The fair will be held across five locations:
- West Bund International Convention and Exhibition Center: No 7 Longyao Road
- West Bund Art Center Hall A: No 2555 Longteng Avenue
- West Bund Dome Art Center: No 2350 Longteng Avenue
- Gate M West Bund Dream Center Dream Studio: Building 8, No 2266 Longteng Avenue
- Orbit: No 3299 Longteng Avenue
2555 Longteng Avenue, Xuhui District, Shanghai
