The Allforpack Emballage Paris, one of the leading trade fairs for packaging and packaging technology, is postponing its dates to summer 2027. Originally scheduled for November 2026, the fair will now take place from 29 June to 1 July 2027 at the Paris Expo Porte de Versailles exhibition centre. This decision, made in close consultation with the fair's partners, aims to further enhance the event's appeal and success.
The move to Paris Expo Porte de Versailles is a strategic step that will lead the fair into a new phase of development. Paris offers an ideal environment for networking and business opportunities, according to the organiser. Its central location in the city will allow for the strengthening of the event's special atmosphere and conviviality. Furthermore, moving the fair to summer is intended to ensure better integration into the sector's activity cycles and more suitable positioning within the international calendar of major industry events.
Focus on live demonstrations and a professional audience
The upcoming edition of the exhibition will be characterised by an increased presence of machinery in full operation. This offers visitors the opportunity to experience solutions under real-world conditions and understand technologies in action. The exhibition places particular emphasis on mobilising a qualified professional audience and aims to strengthen the presence of decision-makers, purchasers and opinion leaders from the Francophone markets.
„The move to Paris Expo Porte de Versailles and the increased presence of machinery in operation will allow us to present a more accessible, even more vibrant and more connected edition. Our goal is clear: we want to continue to make this event a key moment for showcasing the solutions, expertise and dynamism of a strategic industry undergoing profound transformation.“
Chantal De Lamotte, Trade Fair Director
The trade fair is intended to serve as a platform to promote the development, competitiveness, and transformation of the French and European packaging industry. In an environment of profound economic, regulatory, and ecological change, the 2027 edition will offer high-quality content and contributions from renowned speakers. The aim is to make the trade fair a place for exchange, foresight, and debate about the future of packaging.
