PRESS KIT
 

Paris Design Week aims to bring the city to life every September, raising awareness among the general public and professionals alike of the latest trends and thinking in the world of design, decoration and the art of living. 
 
Organised in parallel with the Maison&Objet show, Paris Design Week is an opportunity to discover new things and meet people in showrooms, boutiques and galleries, as well as in institutions such as museums and schools. It's a meeting place for all those involved in design.
 
From 7 to 16 September 2023, Paris will once again be celebrating design in all its forms with 450 participants in 350 venues, celebrating the 13th edition of Paris Design Week, which is celebrating pleasure through its theme: "Enjoy". A chance to explore extravagance, boldness and humour. A programme full of joy, fantasy and well-being awaits visitors this autumn.
 
Since design is a multi-faceted, cross-disciplinary discipline that expresses itself in many different ways, Paris Design Week is offering nine itineraries to suit all tastes. Art, know-how, the environment, gastronomy and more.
 
Paris in 4 districts
Opéra-Concorde-Etoile
Marais-Bastille-République
Rive Gauche districts
Palais Royal-Place des Victoires-Pigalle district - a new district, which marks the start of a new era for the city.
