About the event
Expozoo Paris Animal Show is a pet fair that has been held in Paris for more than 30 years. In 2027 it takes place at the Porte de Versailles exhibition centre from 19 to 21 March, from 10:00 to 18:00. According to the organiser, the fair draws over 35,000 visitors a year, and it calls the event the most important pet event of the year.
The programme is built around dogs, cats and reptiles. On the dog side, shows feature dog sports, positive training and agility, and breed presentations introduce different breeds. Cats have their own competition, where you can watch the judging. The reptile section introduces visitors to the world of reptiles.
In the adoption area, more than 20 animal welfare organisations present animals looking for a new home. Experts such as vets, behaviour advisers and trainers give personal advice on caring for and understanding your animal. According to the organiser, the fair's shopping area is the largest in the sector, with food, supplies and new products.
The programme is still being finalised, as the organiser's website still shows the 2026 content. So check the shows and workshops before you travel. The site also has a separate section for professionals and their meetings.
