Stand builder in Paris
Exhibiting at a Paris trade show? We design your custom or modular stand in 3D, build it in our 1,500 m² workshop in Villepinte, a few minutes from Paris Nord Villepinte, and our own crews install it in every Paris venue, from Porte de Versailles to Le Bourget. An exhibition stand builder and event agency since 2013, we also produce conventions, gala evenings and product launches in Paris.

Good to know
Exhibiting in Paris: what to know.
01
Paris Nord Villepinte: our workshop is minutes away
France’s largest exhibition centre, next to Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport, hosts SIAL Paris, Maison&Objet, Première Vision, JEC World, INTERMAT, Euronaval, Milipol Paris and SILMO. Our workshop is in the same town. Your stand arrives just in time for its build-up slot, a part damaged during unloading goes back to the workshop instead of waiting for a carrier, and between editions your stand can stay in storage a few minutes from the hall.
02
Stand builder at Porte de Versailles: a venue in the city
In the 15th arrondissement, Paris Expo Porte de Versailles hosts VivaTech, the Paris Motor Show, Wine Paris, EquipHotel, SIMI, Paris Games Week and the Salon des Maires, while the Paris Convention Centre hosts major congresses. Trucks enter on delivery slots set by the organiser: your stand has been pre-assembled and checked at the workshop, then packed, so assembly starts as soon as it is unloaded.
03
Stands at the Palais des Congrès and Le Bourget
At Porte Maillot, the Palais des Congrès hosts IMCAS, the JFR, the ADF congress and the JDP: compact stands, short build-ups and content your regulatory teams approve well before opening. The Paris Air Show returns every two years in June: between halls and chalets, security and site access call for logistics planned months ahead. For a stand of 300 m² or more, allow 5 to 6 months.
04
An exhibition stand manufacturer in Villepinte
Joinery, painting, light metalwork, large-format printing: your stand comes out of our in-house workshop. It is pre-assembled and checked before it leaves, then built at the show by our crews, led by the project manager who has followed it since the 3D design. We also prepare the technical file and the orders placed with the organiser (power, rigging, fluids). After breakdown, your stand can come back to the workshop: stored, maintained and ready for the next edition.
05
What an exhibition stand in Paris costs, custom or modular
The stand is often the largest item in a trade show budget. Our per m² benchmarks include fabrication, transport, build-up and breakdown: a premium modular stand costs €420 to €580 per m² excl. VAT at the Premium finish and €680 to €1,000 at Prestige; a custom stand €850 to €1,250 per m² at Prestige and €1,350 to €2,100 at Iconic, the high-end finish in premium materials. A project fee of €2,500 excl. VAT covers design, drawings and coordination. Indicative figures, excluding space rental and the organiser’s technical services (power, rigging), which we order for you.
06
When to order your stand for a Paris trade show
Ideally 16 weeks before opening; at the very least 10 to 14 weeks for a custom stand and 6 to 8 weeks for a premium modular one. For a mid-January show such as Maison&Objet, the countdown therefore starts in late September; for a June show such as VivaTech, in late February. For a large stand at the Paris Air Show, aim for mid-December to mid-January instead, 5 to 6 months ahead. Tighter deadline? Ask for a quote anyway: a short schedule can often be met with reinforced crews and overtime, which we price in, though the choice of materials narrows.

FAQ
Your questions, answered.
Do we need a stand builder based in Paris?
Not necessarily. What matters is experience of the Paris venues: their access routes, delivery slots, technical services and each organiser’s rules. A workshop in the Paris region adds margin: ours is in Villepinte, a few minutes from Paris Nord Villepinte, where your stand is built and pre-assembled before it leaves for the show.
How much does a custom exhibition stand in Paris cost?
Allow €33k to €48k excl. VAT for a 36 m² custom stand at the Prestige finish, and €48k to €70k for 54 m², including the €2,500 project fee. Custom stands start at around €7.5k excl. VAT. For a premium modular stand at the Premium finish, 9 m² comes to €6k to €7.5k and 18 m² to €10k to €13k. These figures are indicative, with no options or industry uplift, and exclude space rental and the organiser’s technical services: our cost calculator gives a range for your stand size and industry, and our exhibition stand cost guide breaks down each item.
How do we get a timeline for our stand at a Paris show?
Find your show in our Paris trade show calendar: its page works out your timeline from the show dates, from brief to build-up, and emails it to you. Our trade show planning timeline explains each step. Rather talk it through? Tell us about your project: a project manager replies within 48 business hours.
Do you work at Porte de Versailles, Paris Nord Villepinte and Le Bourget?
Yes, in every Paris exhibition and congress centre: Paris Nord Villepinte, Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, Paris-Le Bourget, the Palais des Congrès and the city’s event venues. Upcoming show dates are in our Porte de Versailles, Paris Nord Villepinte and Paris trade show calendars, and congress dates in our medical congress calendar.
We are coming from abroad to exhibit in Paris. What do you handle?
The whole stand (the booth, in American English): design, fabrication in our workshop, transport, build-up and breakdown, plus the technical file and the orders placed with the organiser (power, rigging, fluids). You work with one English-speaking team, and we deal with the organiser and the venue in French. Our guide for international exhibitors covers the rest of the preparation.
Can you store our stand between two Paris shows?
Yes. After breakdown, your stand elements come back to our Villepinte workshop: stored, maintained and refurbished, they are ready for the next edition or another show. We also keep a materials record of what is reused from one show to the next.
Do you also organise corporate events in Paris?
Yes: conventions and seminars, gala evenings and product launches, with sets built in our workshop. Allow €120 to €700 excl. VAT per guest excluding venue hire, from €15k excl. VAT. Everything is on our corporate events in Paris page.
