The 2026 Paris International Agricultural Show, held from 21 February to 1 March in Paris, presents this year an exceptional edition centred on renewal, dialogue and quality. Inaugurated in the presence of the President of the Republic on Saturday 21 February, in an atmosphere of respect and serenity welcomed by the organisers, this edition reaffirms the Show's core mission: to forge a living and essential connection between the farming world and the French public.

For this edition, exhibitors and the Show's teams have gone the extra mile in terms of effort and agility to offer visitors a richer and more immersive experience than ever before. Exchanges with farmers are more in-depth, content is more educational, and closer connections with industry professionals have been strengthened, allowing every visitor to better understand the realities and challenges of today's agricultural world.

The programme, particularly diverse, has something to offer every audience. With over 3,500 animals and 1,100 exhibitors from every region of France, the Show provides a comprehensive and vibrant panorama of French and international agriculture. Fans of live entertainment can enjoy the equestrian performances and displays at the Grand Ring, while the Concours Général Agricole celebrates seven animal species. Families will also find plenty to delight in, from the AGRI'CIRCUIT pedal tractors and the Dogs & Cats podium, to the agricultural cabinet of curiosities and AGRI'CINÉ screenings. Finally, Pavilion 7 offers a true sensory journey into the heart of France's regions, its overseas territories, and this edition's guest country of honour.

Visiting the Show is much more than attending an exhibition: it is a concrete act of support for the farming world, and a way of nurturing the deep bond that unites the French people with their agriculture. As Jérôme Despey, President of the Show, puts it: "The Show is fulfilling its role: bringing people together, explaining, and passing on knowledge." There are still several days left to enjoy this great annual event, with doors open until 1 March 2026.
