Phase 3

In December 2025, the exhibition centre modernisation program began its final phase of work, with the ambition of becoming a destination for all audiences.

The former pavilions 2 and 3 will make way for three new pavilions, redesigned to meet the current and future needs of event organisers.

Located at the entrance of the grounds, Pavilion 2 will be modernised to provide three complementary spaces: 

• Ground floor: Designed for long-term public exhibitions. Located right at the venue entrance, this space can operate independently from other events or be used in conjunction with Hall 2.2. 
• First floor: A seamless route through the grounds, with direct access to Pavilion 1 via “Pont des Expositions” and to Pavilion 3.

Pavilion 3 is designed as a large, flexible space that can adapt to a wide range of layouts. Thanks to its impressive height, it can host any type of event.

Its extensive, partially pillar-free floor space and impressive ceiling height make it an ideal setting for major trade shows and large-scale conferences.

Located right next to the Paris Convention Centre, it can host plenary sessions for 7,000 people or more, complementing the existing spaces.

The construction work will also help to: 

• Separate visitor footfall from logistics flows,
• Connect the grounds with the towns of Issy-les-Moulineaux and Vanves thanks to well-designed pedestrian entrances,
• Increase the greenery in the grounds with planted roofs and new trees, 
• Improve the coexistence of operations in the exhibition centre with the everyday life of the nearby residential neighbourhood. 

A living, breathing venue with a window onto the city!
