South Paris Arena

SP1_EXT_P_Arena Paris Sud

South Paris Arena is part of the Paris Expo, an exhibition and convention centre that is one of the most active in Europe and most visited in France. Across 35 hectares, 228,000 sqm of exhibition halls and eight pavilions, the Paris Expo welcomes 7.5 million visitors each year, particularly during the International Agricultural Show. With Halls 1, 4 and 6 hosting a large number of the Games' events (with others set aside for Games logistics), Paris Expo will be a major hub for the Paris 2024 Games.

Built in 1923 to host the Paris Trade Fair (Foire de Paris), the complex has been developed extensively over the years and can now adapt to a wide range of requirements and configurations. An ambitious renovation programme, based on three phases over 10 years with the last one to be completed in 2023, is currently underway to modernise its infrastructure.

Legacy

South Paris Arena, as well as every other hall at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, will continue to host shows, fairs and conventions throughout the year.
