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.
This year, for the first time, the exhibition will form part of the "Journées européennes du patrimoine" programme.
Guest of Honour:
The Musée du Grand Siècle

'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.'
