FINE ARTS PARIS
Formerly FAB Paris
AT THE GRAND PALAIS
From 19 to 23 September, 2026
On the programme
for the 2026 edition
of Fine Arts Paris
As France’s only international multidisciplinary arts event, Fine Arts Paris brings together, at the Grand Palais in September, around a hundred galleries covering all periods and specialisms of the art market.
This 2026 edition invites interior designer Charles Zana to bring his creativity to the fair’s scenography.
Guest of Honour:
The Musée du Grand Siècle
The Musée du Grand Siècle, scheduled to open in 2028, will present its project and collections at Fine Arts Paris.
It will showcase the “Grand Siècle” exhibition, which will be displayed in its future permanent galleries in Saint-Cloud, featuring a selection of paintings, sculptures, furniture, precious objects and everyday items that will tell the story of the arts, sciences and society in 17th-century France.

And also:
- Fabienne Verdier and the Manufacture nationale de Sèvres are presenting a brand-new collaboration supported by AXA, the fair’s official partner

- The Ville de Paris is offering visitors a behind-the-scenes look at conservation and restoration in all its forms, including a live restoration demonstration of a work of art
- "Le plus grand musée de France", a patronage campaign launched over ten years ago by the Fondation pour la Sauvegarde de l’Art français, aimed at involving civil society in the restoration of our local treasures.
- The CPGA Jury Prize (Professional Committee of Art Galleries), which recognises the quality of a stand’s presentation and artistic selection.
- The “Arts Week” offering VIP tours of around twenty partner museums.
'In today’s evolving art market landscape, fairs have become indispensable, enabling gallerists to strengthen their visibility, connect with new collectors, and benefit from the shared insights of their peers.
We look forward to this new edition, which will further cement Fine Arts’ position as France’s flagship art and antiques fair and reaffirm Paris’s status as a major capital for art and culture.'
Xavier Eeckhout,
President of Fine Arts Paris
