The Bordeaux Fair in a few words

An unmissable general public event in Bordeaux, welcoming more than 190,000 people over 9 days each year, the Fair is committed to building ever more successful editions and, to do so, dares to introduce some new products to challenge itself.

What is the Fair?

The Bordeaux Fair is an event anchored in Bordeaux heritage. It was created more than 100 years ago on the Place des Quinconces in Bordeaux and was exported in 1969 to the exhibition center built for the occasion.

Last year, it celebrated its 100th edition. There were only 2 periods when the Bordeaux Fair did not take place: during the war and the COVID year.

The context

Formerly very commercial and commercial, the Fair has experienced the rise of e-commerce, increased competition from brands combined with a change in consumption habits, and the months of COVID have accelerated the need for this event… to stand reinvent!
Its values ​​of authenticity, pleasure and pleasure are felt and transmitted with each visit. We come to the Fair with family, with friends, to stroll, have fun, buy and leave with a souvenir.

As an organizer, the ambition that drives us? Promote all the talents of the neo-Aquitaine territory. The Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, “our” region, is beautiful, powerful, identity-rich, wild, friendly, festive… and the Fair must celebrate all these characteristics of the “South-West art of living”.
