May in Bordeaux concentrates agrofood supply, entertainment and local commerce within a generalist fair format that mixes products, shows and family activities. Foire Internationale de Bordeaux 2026 takes place from 22 to 31 May at Parc des expositions de Bordeaux-Lac and is organized by Bordeaux Events And More.
Dates and venue for Foire Internationale de Bordeaux 2026
Foire Internationale de Bordeaux 2026 runs from 22 to 31 May at Parc des expositions de Bordeaux-Lac. The schedule features weekend programming with musical acts and thematic activities aimed at both general visitors and professionals interested in food, wine and consumer goods.
Sectors and exhibitor profile
The commercial offer includes food and beverages with a clear link to wine and regional gastronomy. Fashion appears among the commercial universes alongside leisure products and travel equipment, with dedicated spaces for camping-car and van communities. The sector mix makes the fair a hybrid showcase where producers, retailers and consumer brands converge.
Highlighted programming in the 2026 edition
Program items listed include an expo Musique area, concerts and shopping animations. The fair integrates satellite events with professional and playful angles such as Robocup Junior, the Trophée Gustave and rural-focused displays like Aquitanima and the Journées Ovines. The Salon de l’Agriculture is also present within the broader calendar.
How to approach B2B prospecting at the fair
To gain traction in a mixed-audience environment, focus on three practical moves. First, segment your targets on site: viticulture producers, prepared food manufacturers and fashion retailers. Second, schedule meetings outside peak visiting hours to ensure focused conversations. Third, prepare concise product fact sheets and price lists for quick distribution. In mixed fairs, attention windows are short.
Make the stand interaction-efficient: prioritize tasting setups and short demos, and provide downloadable material via QR codes to streamline contact capture and follow-up.
Practical notes for exhibitors and visitors
The organizer maintains exhibitor resources and a press area through Bordeaux Events And More. Several concerts and special days affect visitor flows during weekends, so align staff rotas and demonstration slots with those peaks.
