From May 11 to 17, 2026, the French capital will host a major international women's tennis tournament right in the heart of the Bois de Boulogne: the Clarins Trophy. The event will also feature an exhibition match and a cross-country race!

Before the Roland-Garros, the Lagardère Paris Racing, a sports club nestled in the heart of the Bois de Boulogne, is hosting an international tennis tournament. This year’s edition of the Trophée Clarins, dedicated to women, is scheduled from May 11 to May 17, 2026. Spectators can enjoy top-tier matches featuring the world’s best players, along with a variety of sport-related events throughout the week. For just a few tens of euros, the whole family can watch qualifying rounds, semi-finals, and even the final, making it an accessible event for all ages.

Throughout the week, the clay court tournament also aims to make sports accessible to many children from underserved neighborhoods by introducing them to tennis. On Tuesday, May 12th, 1,000 children, sponsored by a top-level athlete, will gather for the Lagardère Paris Racing Cross, whose finish line will be on the iconic grass track of Croix Catelan, a site that hosted the marathon during the 1900 Paris Olympics. The day will conclude with a charity gala dinner prepared by renowned multi-Michelin-starred chef Christian Le Squer.

On the Wednesday morning, celebrities will compete in a friendly and spirited Padel Trophy, a popular racket sport, to benefit the Imagine Institute — a leading global center dedicated to research, treatment, and education on genetic diseases. On the final day, after the women’s final, an exhibition match will bring together four Club legends: Mansour Bahrami, Cédric Pioline, Fabrice Santoro, and Arnaud Clément.
