In 2026, NestFest brought more than 1,500 people together over the course of the weekend, with the festival free and open to the public.
Across two days, guests explored our Signature Room installations, met local creatives, took part in hands-on experiences with local brands, and gathered for four (packed room!) panels about the ways we make, collect and live in our spaces.
We also welcomed 70 guests to our ticketed preview hour and 115 sponsors, partners, panelists and other stakeholders to our invite-only kickoff — giving the weekend a chance to begin with the people who helped bring it to life.
See below for some pictures from the weekend.
We asked 6 artists to re-imagine what a room could be. We provided 2 walls, and they created the rest.
Meet the artists here, and see photos from their room Signature Rooms below.
