February is a short month, and in Paris it is bracketed by two shows at Porte de Versailles: classic cars with Rétromobile in the first week, then the opening of the Salon International de l'Agriculture (the international agricultural show), of which only the first two days, 27 and 28 February, still fall within the month. In between come a weekend devoted to Japan in Montreuil and an art fair at the Grand Palais whose dates have yet to be settled.

This selection of consumer fairs and shows is based on announcements from the organisers and on reference event calendars, all checked on 29 October 2026. For each event we say what is confirmed and what is not yet; other events may be added to the calendar before February. If you are planning a stay in Paris in the depths of winter, routes from the Clichy neighbourhood are gathered at the end of the article.

Rétromobile in early February: classic cars at Porte de Versailles

Rétromobile, the classic car show, appeals to collectors and casual enthusiasts alike. Its dates are announced as Wednesday 3 to Sunday 7 February 2027, to be confirmed on retromobile.com: the official website could not be accessed when we checked, and these dates come from several reference calendars that agree with one another.

For the same reason, we give no opening hours, halls or ticket prices here: the details circulating online have not been confirmed by the organiser for 2027, and some contradict each other.

C'est Bon ! Le Japon, 5 to 7 February: three Japanese days in Montreuil

For its 10th edition, C'est Bon ! Le Japon devotes three days to Japanese food and culture, from Friday 5 to Sunday 7 February 2027. Mind the address: the show takes place at Paris Montreuil Expo, 128 rue de Paris, in Montreuil, in Seine-Saint-Denis, so outside the city limits of Paris.

Doors open at 11am and close at 7pm on Friday and Saturday, and at 6pm on Sunday. A day ticket costs €12, or €10 in advance sales, in limited numbers; admission is free for children under 7. The 2027 programme and exhibitor list had not yet been announced when we checked.

The same weekend, from 5 to 7 February, the Accor Arena (8 boulevard de Bercy, 12th arrondissement) hosts the Paris Grand Slam judo tournament, a sporting event outside the scope of the shows, whose 2027 ticket prices are not yet readable on the official website.

Art Capital at the Grand Palais: dates still to be settled

The art fair Art Capital is announced for mid-February at the Grand Palais, avenue Winston Churchill, in the 8th arrondissement: 18 to 21 February according to the header of the official website, while a second mention on the same page gives 24 to 27. Please confirm on artcapital.fr before making plans. Until the dates are settled, we do not repeat any opening hours or prices.

Salon de l'Agriculture: a first weekend on 27 and 28 February

The Salon International de l'Agriculture opens on Saturday 27 February 2027 at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles and runs until Sunday 7 March: in this February calendar, only its first two days fall within the month. It is open every day from 9am to 7pm, with ticket desks open from 8:30am to 6:45pm, and the organiser announces no late-night openings.

The 2027 prices are published: €17 full price, €9 for children aged 6 to 12, and free admission for children under 6. The reduced rate for students and school groups, at €10, is sold only at the ticket desks from Monday to Friday, so it does not apply on Saturday 27 or Sunday 28. As for online ticketing, the organiser announced at the end of October that it would open in mid-November 2026; check on its website that it is actually live.

From rue de Clichy: the useful routes

Hôtel R de Paris, at 41 rue de Clichy, is a convenient starting point for both Porte de Versailles shows: line 12, boarded at Trinité-d'Estienne d'Orves or at Saint-Lazare station (a 7-minute walk), takes you there without a change. On arrival, trams T2 and T3a also stop at the station.

For the Grand Palais, line 13, from Liège or Place de Clichy, serves Champs-Élysées-Clemenceau, one of the stations listed on the Art Capital website; please check the route on the Île-de-France Mobilités website. For Paris Montreuil Expo, we have not verified public transport access: the C'est Bon ! Le Japon website and the Île-de-France Mobilités journey planner remain the best references.

On an arrival or departure day, the hotel's luggage storage lets you head to the show without your suitcase.

In the evening, the neighbourhood around the hotel, between the Casino de Paris directly opposite and the Théâtre Mogador, extends the day without crossing Paris again.

February also leaves time outside the exhibition halls: our guide to sightseeing in Paris suggests visits to slip in between two shows.
