Eurexpo de Lyon
The Lyon Eurexpo is the second largest exhibition city in France (second only to Paris), and Lyon's reputation in the exhibition industry comes from the more than 50 top exhibitions held annually at the Lyon Eurexpo. Located in the Chassieu district, southeast of the city, Lyon Eurexpo is the second largest modern exhibition center in France, second only to the Paris Villepinte Exhibition Center, with a total of 6 newly renovated and interconnected modern exhibition halls, decorated with wooden panels, creating a very comfortable and gentle atmosphere. According to official data released in 2016, Lyon Eurexpo offers 130000 square meters of spacious indoor exhibition space and 50000 square meters of unobstructed outdoor exhibition area. Each event can divide the exhibition center into 2-3 exhibition areas through movable partitions, implementing flexible and efficient use of exhibition space.
For the convenience of exhibitors and visiting buyers, Lyon Eurexpo provides unlimited WIFI connectivity, constructs 120 exhibition hall entrances (among which 60 entrances are 4.5 meters high, allowing large transport vehicles to pass without obstruction), and has 7 restaurants and 7 bars for on-site personnel to enjoy meals, rest, and drink.
