About the event

COVID Update

Between the second waves and new COVID-19 variants, it’s no surprise to learn that the Paris Air Show 2021 edition has been cancelled. After all, it’s one of the biggest outdoor events in the whole world, which makes it risky and hard to manage safely just yet.

Gifas (Groupement des Industries Françaises Aéronautiques et Spatiales) are looking at a far timeline before bringing the aviation show back to Le Bourget Airport outside of Paris, France. In an effort to keep attendees safe, organisers are moving the event further back to June 2023. The new dates have been announced as well – June 19^th – June 25^th!
