The Parc des expositions Paris Expo Porte de Versailles is a must for regular visitors to trade fairs and exhibitions. It is the second-largest exhibition center in France, and hosts both the capital's major events and XXL exhibitions.

TheParisian calendar is punctuated by a rich program of events, including unmissable trade shows and eagerly-awaited exhibition-events. XXL events often set their sights on a giant space in Paris, the second-largest exhibition center in France: Paris Expo Porte de Versailles. Located on the western side ofParis in the 15th arrondissement ( ), it offers an eclectic program that caters for all passions: from the Foire de Paris to the Salon du Chocolat, not forgetting Paris Games Week and the famous Salon de l'Agriculture, it's a must for fans of these major events.

It's also the venue for a number of major exhibitions, including Titanic, Game of Thrones and Harry Potter. So, when you're in Paris, we recommend you take a look at the venue's program to make sure you don't miss an event that matches your interests.

In all, the Paris Porte de Versailles Exhibition Centre covers no less than 36 hectares, and its various pavilions offer a total of over 200,000 m2 of exhibition space. Gargantuan surfaces, directly accessible by metro line 12 - these are two major advantages that make this venue a must for events in the capital.
