Observing is one thing. Getting your hands dirty is another. From October 16 to 18, 2026, the Journées Particulières will once again open to the public the workshops, historic Maisons and creative spaces of the LVMH group that are usually off-limits. For three days, this free event shines a light on the trades, techniques and know‑how that precede the finished piece, object or experience presented to the public.
Some houses go beyond a simple tour and offer workshops or masterclasses. The worlds on offer vary: design, gastronomy, beauty, perfume, and jewelry are put under the spotlight one after another. Depending on the session, you might craft, test, learn the basics, or watch an expert in action. Not all formats look alike: some experiences lean on hands-on practice, others on demonstrations or conversations.
The point, essentially, is to peek behind the final result. Materials, techniques, experiments, precision: these workshops lay bare everything that happens beforehand, where a technique gradually becomes a piece, an object, or a creation.
