The Cité de la gastronomie Paris-Rungis is due to open in Val-de-Marne in 2024. Conceived as a cultural complex, the new venue's mission is to promote sustainable food and responsible gastronomy through a number of creative and convivial spaces.

2024 promises to be a busy year in Paris and the Ile-de-France region. While the Olympic Games will set the capital abuzz, other events will also be making news, such as the Cité de la gastronomie Paris-Rungis.

This new cultural, creative and convivial venue is due to open its doors in the Val-de-Marne, not far from the famous Rungis International Market (MIN).

Set in a lively 7-hectare district, the Cité de la gastronomie Paris-Rungis is sure to put a smile on the faces of French cuisine lovers. According to the first details unveiled on the dedicated website, the Cité de la gastronomie Paris-Rungis will offer a range of experiences: sensory, educational and artistic.

To this end, the Cité de la gastronomie Paris-Rungis will unveil a number of spaces:

  • A center for interpretation and experimentation around temporary exhibitions;
  • A gastronomic Fab Lab to encourage creativity and public participation;
  • A fully-equipped auditorium;
  • A modular platform for training courses specific to the Cité's themes;
  • Concept stores and shops;
  • Restaurants to discover all facets of gastronomy (including application restaurants);
  • A covered street for large banquets and live gastronomic shows;
  • Educational gardens closely linked to nearby urban farms.

Of course, the Cité de la Gastronomie will also be an opportunity to meet and exchange ideas with players in the field - trainers and professionals alike.

To make the venue even more convivial, banquets, large-scale meals and culinary workshops will also be organized.

The other good news is the ease of access, thanks to the extension of line 14! To reach the Cité de la gastronomie, it will take 20 minutes from Gare de Lyon in Paris.

If all goes according to plan, construction is due to start in 2020, with the opening scheduled for 2024.
