Following a four-year break due to COVID, the Paris Air Show is back for its 54th edition . The event opens its doors on 19 June and ESA is taking part with an exhibition in the Space Pavilion, which will be located at B7 Static Display. ESA will share a pavilion with CNES, the French National Space Agency. The Space Pavilion will consist of an ESA exhibition area, a CNES exhibition area, and a shared events area. Throughout the week, the pavilion will host presentations, events and temporary exhibitions from both agencies, while several events will be held in the ESA/CNES shared area.
The first four days (19 to 22 June) are reserved for industry professionals and trade visitors. The show is then open to students on 23 June, while the general public are warmly invited to visit the ESA pavilion on 23, 24 and 25 June.
