MIF Expo 2026: Salon du Made in France in Paris, 12-15 Nov

MIF Expo 2026, the Salon du Made in France, takes place from Thursday 12 to Sunday 15 November 2026 at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, in Hall 7.2 instead of Hall 3. Entry is free with pre-registration; without an invitation, it costs €10 at the door, in cash or by cheque only, refunded on your first purchase. For this 14th edition of the made in France expo in Paris, the organiser announces 1,000 exhibitors and more than 110,000 visitors.

To exhibit this November, the route through the chambers of trades and crafts closed in May. Two doors remain: applying directly to the organiser, which publishes no deadline, and the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Region's pavilion, open until 3 October at 2 pm. All the information in this guide was checked on the official websites on 28 September 2026.

MIF Expo 2026: dates, opening hours and how to get there

The Salon du Made in France 2026 (MIF Expo) takes place from Thursday 12 to Sunday 15 November 2026 in Hall 7.2 at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, 1 place de la Porte de Versailles, 75015 Paris. It opens 10 am to 7 pm Thursday to Saturday and 10 am to 6 pm on Sunday, and visitors enter through Gate A2 (Porte A2), according to the organiser's practical information.

Regular visitors need to reset their bearings: the fair leaves Hall 3, its home from 2023 to 2025, for Hall 7.2, as the City of Paris events listing confirms (the organiser's English page calls it Pavilion 7.2). To get there, Viparis, which runs the exhibition centre, lists metro line 12 (Porte de Versailles station, exit 1), trams T2 and T3a and buses 80 and 39. If you drive, the organiser points to car park P6 (for prices, call +33 1 40 68 22 22). On site: a cloakroom in Hall 7.2, step-free halls, no animals.

MIF Expo tickets: free invitation or €10 at the door (cash or cheque)

The Salon du Made in France 2026 offers free entry to visitors who register in advance on the official website. Without an invitation, entry costs €10 at the door, payable in cash or by cheque only, and the €10 is refunded on your first purchase from an exhibitor. The e-invitation stays valid on several consecutive days, the organiser specifies, while a printed invitation card can only be used once.

The invitation is requested on the invitations page of the website, with one form for individuals and another for professionals. Contrary to what some pages still claim, the fair is not invitation-only, and tickets sold by touts are refused.

Before you start shopping:

• Cash: not every exhibitor has a card terminal. There is a cash machine on site, but the organiser advises withdrawing money beforehand.

• No right of withdrawal: a purchase made at the fair is final, as French law provides for fairs and trade shows.

• A snack: the organiser itself admits that the quality of the on-site catering does not always match the prices charged, and reminds visitors that they can bring their own.

• No school groups: the organiser states that the fair is not suited to hosting them.

• A look at the label: wording such as "conçu en France" (designed in France), "assemblé en France" (assembled in France) or a French flag does not guarantee that a product was made in France, as the French Ministry of the Economy (Bercy) points out. The Origine France Garantie label (at least 50% of the unit cost price acquired in France) and France Terre Textile (at least 75% of manufacturing steps) are more precise. If in doubt, Bercy points to SignalConso for reports.

Salon du Made in France or Grande Exposition du Fabriqué en France: two different events

The Grande Exposition du Fabriqué en France is not the Salon du Made in France. It is held at the Élysée Palace, in November 2026 for its 6th edition, and shows one selected product per French département. MIF Expo is a private made in France trade fair, organised by the company ADEL SAS at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles from 12 to 15 November, where, according to the organiser, 1,000 exhibitors sell their products to the public.

At the Élysée, products are shortlisted by the prefects, then chosen by a panel of consumers and former winners (2026 call for applications, closed on 29 May). The 2025 edition welcomed nearly 10,000 visitors, according to the Élysée.

Made in France Première Vision, the trade show for the textile and fashion industry, is now part of Première Vision Paris, whose next edition runs from 26 to 28 January 2027 at Paris Nord Villepinte (official website).

MIF Expo 2026 exhibitors: sectors, online list, Village de l'Artisanat

MIF Expo 2026 brings together 1,000 exhibitors across seven sectors, according to the organiser: fashion and accessories, beauty and well-being, home and decoration, gastronomy, children and leisure, services and partners, plus a new health area. The Normandy Region is the featured territory, and the Village de l'Artisanat of the chambers of trades and crafts (CMA) gathers more than 200 artisans over more than 2,000 m².

The launch press release also announces territorial pavilions and an Origine France Garantie TV set, "La Maison OFG", where journalist Anthony Vitorino hosts round tables, but the detailed programme had not been published by the end of September. The exhibitor list showed more than 800 profiles on 28 September 2026 by our count, with an "Ajouter à mon parcours" (add to my route) button to plan your visit. The Village de l'Artisanat is on stand D21.

With the fair about six weeks before Christmas, the organiser has published 25 gift ideas with stand numbers and prices, from Saint James's "Binic" sailor jumper (stand G01, €175) to Cristel's "Bicentenaire" frying pan (stand K17, from €109.90). It has also highlighted 15 "childhood memories" brands, including Bonux (stand i21) and Duralex (stand K15).

Professional buyers: the B2B sourcing area

Open to the general public and to French and international professionals, the Salon du Made in France is also a sourcing venue, including for having products made under your own brand (white label), according to the organiser. Its B2B sourcing page offers, with a separate invitation, a personalised visit route, targeted business meetings and access to the VIP club.

Grands Prix du Made in France 2026: nominees and public vote

The Grands Prix du Made in France have six categories in 2026: Produit (product), Espoir (up-and-coming), Innovation, Public (public's choice), Entrepreneur and Village de l'Artisanat. They are presented on Thursday 12 November 2026 at 6 pm at the fair, and the Public prize is voted online once a day until 11 November at 8 pm. The nominees:

• Produit: Atol (Ameya and Lattitude eyewear), Le Parapluie de Cherbourg (40th-anniversary umbrella), Manufacture de Charolles (Glouglou carafe), Radior (Colibri electric bike), Trigano Jardin (Romy 2 garden swing frame)

• Innovation: AeroXSense, Alstom, Archeon Medical, Emile Henry (Sublime+ casserole dish), Stephanix

• Entrepreneur: Biscuiterie Jeannette, La Brosserie Française, Les Manufactures de Tricots, Les Petits Culottés, Velecta Paris

The Produit, Espoir, Innovation and Entrepreneur prizes are open to any company that manufactures in France, whether or not it exhibits (2026 entries were due before 6 July, according to the rules). The Public prize goes to an exhibitor, and the Village de l'Artisanat prize is chosen by CMA France and the organiser.

From 15,000 to 110,000 visitors: the fair in figures since 2012

The Salon du Made in France has grown from 15,000 visitors and fewer than a hundred exhibitors in 2012, at the Espace Champerret, to 110,000 visitors and 1,000 exhibitors in 2024 and again in 2025, at Porte de Versailles, according to the organiser's reports.

According to the organiser's surveys of the 2025 edition (2026 brochure), more than 9 visitors in 10 say they bought something at the fair (92%), with an average basket of €100 to €500, and 85% of exhibitors say they reached their sales targets. The 2027 dates have not been announced yet. Since 2022, the fair has been held every year over four days, between 6 and 15 November.

Exhibiting at MIF Expo: the made-in-France rule, stand prices and how to apply

To exhibit at MIF Expo, products must be made in France: the organiser reviews each application on the basis of know-how, workforce and the share of manufacturing done in France, in line with the rules of origin of the customs code. Stand prices for 2026 are not published; the last public price list, for 2023, ranged from €313 to €420 excl. VAT per m², plus €270 excl. VAT of compulsory fees.

The organiser's FAQ is clear: products "doivent impérativement être fabriqués en France" (must be made in France, without exception), and "création ne signifie pas fabrication française" (design is not manufacturing). That rule decides who can exhibit: a brand that designs in France and has its products made elsewhere does not qualify. No label is publicly required.

To apply, the exhibitor page points to the contact form, and the organiser's FAQ also gives a phone number, +33 1 41 09 74 72. The website offers an exhibitor account open for the 2026 edition (a SIRET number, the French company registration number, is required), which gave access to the registration form according to the 2023 offer. For 2026, the organiser publishes no deadline for a direct stand, the chambers of trades route closed in May, and the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes pavilion accepts applications until Saturday 3 October at 2 pm.

Three ways to exhibit and what they cost

There are three ways to exhibit at MIF Expo 2026: book a stand directly with the organiser (€313 to €420 excl. VAT per m² on the 2023 price list), join the CMA's Village de l'Artisanat (€630 excl. VAT) or go through a regional pavilion, such as the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes one (€1,187 to €1,891 excl. VAT).

1 Directly with the organiser: at 2023 prices (official offer), a 6 m² pre-equipped stand came to €2,424 excl. VAT with the registration pack (€200 excl. VAT) and liability insurance (€70 excl. VAT), both compulsory, and to €2,789 excl. VAT with 1 kW of electricity. The 6 m² turnkey stand, including electricity, a €120 excl. VAT furniture credit and the compulsory fees, cost €2,790 excl. VAT.

2 In the Village de l'Artisanat, through the chambers of trades and crafts: a stand 1.80 m wide and 1.85 m deep, with a counter, shelving and two sockets. Travel, accommodation and meals are paid by the artisan. The CMA Île-de-France reserves it for artisans listed in the national business register (RNE) who have never exhibited there, and requires two days of training. According to the CMA Nouvelle-Aquitaine guide, artisans in the 2025 Village made an average of €4,300 in sales, and 86% had covered the cost of taking part by the end of the fair.

3 On a regional pavilion: the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Region limits who can exhibit on its pavilion to companies based in the region whose products get most of their added value there, with a de minimis state aid declaration.

Option	Space	Published price	Status for 2026
Direct stand (2023 price list)	from 6 m², 10 m² for bare space	€313 to €420 excl. VAT per m², plus €270 excl. VAT of compulsory fees	2026 prices on request
Stand Premier or Module Créateur (2023 price list)	1 to 4 m²	€418 excl. VAT (1 m²) to €1,559 excl. VAT (4 m²), plus €270 excl. VAT of compulsory fees	2026 prices on request
Village de l'Artisanat (CMA)	3.33 m² equipped	€630 excl. VAT (€756 incl. VAT), registration and insurance included	applications closed in May 2026
Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes pavilion	4, 6 or 8 m²	€1,187 to €1,891 excl. VAT	applications until 3 October 2026, 2 pm

Manufacturers who also sell to local authorities will find the same exhibition centre nine days later, at the Salon des Maires 2026, from 24 to 26 November.

Selling on your stand: sign, cash, food

• An A3 sign: the ministerial order of 2 December 2014 requires a sign, in 90-point type, stating that the consumer has no right of withdrawal, on pain of an administrative fine of up to €3,000 for an individual and €15,000 for a legal entity.

• Cash capped at €1,000 for a private customer resident in France, as the French government's Service-Public site points out, while the organiser advises visitors to bring cash.

• No food for immediate consumption, unless under contract with the exhibition centre.

"Made in France": what the organiser and French regulators check

A "Made in France" marking is optional (except for certain food, agricultural and cosmetic products), but when it is displayed it follows the non-preferential origin rules of the Union Customs Code: the product is either wholly obtained in France or underwent its last substantial transformation there. As Bercy points out, the marking does not mean that 100% of a product's manufacturing steps took place in France.

Fairs are checked too. In its 2023 investigation, France's consumer protection authority (DGCCRF) targeted 1,499 businesses, 16% of which had irregularities, including exhibitors and organisers of fairs that promote regional production, Made in France fairs among them. At a Made in France fair in Lyon, one exhibitor was even excluded after a DGCCRF report on the Chinese origin of its products. A false origin claim is a misleading commercial practice, punishable by up to 2 years in prison and a €300,000 fine, an amount that can be raised to 10% of average annual turnover, according to Bercy.

On the stand:

• Proof: component invoices, manufacturing steps, up-to-date certificates (the DGCCRF recorded as an offence the use of the Origine France Garantie label with an expired certificate).

• Accurate wording: the DGE, France's Directorate-General for Enterprise, advises against a French flag, cockade or tricolour hexagon on a product that is not of French origin. Without the place of manufacture, "conçu en France" (designed in France) or "marque française" (French brand) may be judged misleading: it recommends stating the origin, for example "conçu dans nos ateliers parisiens et fabriqué en Tunisie" (designed in our Paris workshops and made in Tunisia).

The state label Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant (living heritage company), held by more than 1,300 companies, recognises outstanding French craftsmanship; according to the Jégo report on made in France of May 2025, it does not systematically guarantee that these companies' products are made in France.

Applying for 2027: the timeline to plan ahead

To exhibit at the Salon du Made in France 2027, the 2026 deadlines set the pace:

• March to May: applications for the Grande Exposition du Fabriqué en France (in 2026, from 31 March to 29 May).

• May: Village de l'Artisanat, through your CMA (in 2026, closing dates from 18 to 23 May).

• Early July: Grands Prix entry (in 2026, before 6 July).

• Mid-July at the latest: request for an Information sur le Made in France (IMF), a free analysis by French customs (neither a label nor an authorisation), delivered within 120 days of a complete file.

• September: Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes pavilion (in 2026, from 18 September to 3 October).

• Direct stand: no published deadline; the 2023 offer was put online on 22 December 2022.

Made in France fairs outside Paris: the 2026-2027 calendar

On 28 September, exhibitor applications were open for Origine Auvergne, Origine Loire, Tarbes, Périgueux, Louviers and Made in Elsass. In Hésingue, the Salon Made in Elsass has no edition in November 2026: the next one takes place on 6 and 7 November 2027, at La Comète (organiser's website).

Already held in 2026, and so worth watching for 2027: the Salon du Fabriqué en Aveyron (Bozouls, late September), Made in Occitanie (Fontfroide Abbey, June), Inspiration Normandie (Caen in 2026, the Eure département in 2027) and the Salon du Made in Loire (Montbrison, May).

Exhibiting at a regional fair: published prices

Four regional fairs in the calendar publish a stand price for 2026; for the others, the application pack is sent on request.

Fair	Stand	Published price	Registration fee
Origine Auvergne	from 6 m²	€96 excl. VAT per m² pre-equipped (micro-businesses under 10 employees), €191 excl. VAT (SMEs), €132 excl. VAT bare	€120 excl. VAT
Salon Made in France Tarbes	equipped 4 m² module	€228 excl. VAT	€150 excl. VAT
Un Noël Made in France, Louviers	6 m²	€138 incl. VAT bare, €234 incl. VAT equipped	none stated
Salon Made in France Dordogne	2 m² in the shared "Artisanat d'art" (fine crafts) area	€130	none stated

On the organising side, regional made in France fairs are run by very different bodies (a Region, a chamber of commerce, exhibition centres, a private company in Alsace), yet all of them must register dozens, sometimes hundreds, of manufacturers, allocate stands and keep the floor plan up to date until build-up. That is where Keyqo fits in: French trade show management software specialised in exhibitor management and floor plans, which brings exhibitor registration, the interactive floor plan and stand booking follow-up together in a single tool.

Lyon and Bordeaux: no MIF Expo in 2026

There is no MIF Expo in Lyon or Bordeaux in 2026: the organiser only announces the Paris edition of its made in France show, from 12 to 15 November. The regional spin-offs took place only once each, in Bordeaux from 11 to 13 March 2022 (10,300 visitors and 127 exhibitors according to the official report) and in Lyon on 6 and 7 May 2023, at La Sucrière.
