Created in 2006, Design Parade Hyères was initiated with the godmother Andrée Putman and aims to share contemporary creation in the field of design with the public and professionals. The annual competition, the highlight of the festival, presents the work of ten young designers, offering an exceptional showcase and a unique accompaniment to these emerging talents.

Every summer, Villa Noailles now organizes Design Parade in two parts: in Toulon for interior architecture and in Hyères for design. The festival allows not only to explore new trends in design and interior architecture, but also to discover the rich and varied heritage of the cities of Toulon and Hyères. These two neighbouring towns offer a unique expression of the architectural and decorative richness of the Metropolis and the Var.
