Salon des Maires et des Collectivités Locales 2026 will be held at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, Paris, from 24 to 26 November, in Pavilion 7. The Mayors and Local Authorities Exhibition is organised by Infopro Digital and runs alongside the Congrès des Maires.
Presented as France's leading event for local public action, the show covers local government, public procurement, infrastructure and energy, and the 2026 edition is positioned for the newly elected municipal teams. The previous edition counted 65,672 visitors, 1,380 exhibitors and 448 speaking sessions, according to the organiser. It is co-located with the Salon des Sports et Parasports and the Salon de la Biodiversité et du Génie écologique.
For executives, the show is the annual point of contact between suppliers and the mayors, council leaders and procurement heads who control local public spending. Utilities, construction groups, mobility operators, energy companies and digital suppliers to the public sector attend to present their offers to municipal decision makers, and the arrival of new councils gives suppliers an early opportunity to build relationships before investment priorities are fixed. Chief executives of groups that depend on public contracts use the three days to meet elected officials in volume.
The organiser gives the 2026 theme as Boldness is local, a reference to the newly elected municipal teams and the start of their mandates.
