- Europe's leading business district located less than 10 minutes from Paris.
- An area of recognised international appeal where every year 180,000 employees, 42,000 inhabitants, 45,000 students and 8.4 million tourists come together.
- A real neighbourhood in a setting never seen before in France where more than 350 events are organised every year.
- A pedestrian area that is very busy all year round with more than 17,000 sq.m. of exceptional modular spaces that are available every day with no time limit imposed.
- A participatory target that is faithful to the events held in the area and always looking forward to new event experiences.
- A real shopping destination: the district is home to one of the largest shopping centres in Europe, Westfield Les 4 Temps and the Cnit.
- But it is also a place to meet and exchange ideas, a link between several worlds that are as different as they are complementary.

Exceptional spaces for your events
An XXL decor with 17,000 sq.m. of adaptable spaces available every day of the year, day and night, to accommodate your projects.
It's up to you to choose your own unique location to dress up your events and film shoots.
Tailor-made support for the organisation of your event
Advertiser or event organiser, guaranteeing the success of your events is our mission. Facilitating the reception and organisation of your events by making public space available to you is our job.
We provide personalised support adapted to your expectations from the study of your project to its completion, including the preparation of your technical files, the validation of safety and security instructions, and referral to the relevant authorities if necessary.
Our events team studies the feasibility of your project and informs you of the conditions and deadlines for completion as well as the administrative constraints and obligations to be met with the relevant authorities in order to subsequently issue you with your AOT (Authorisation for Temporary Occupation of the Public Domain).
Whatever your desired event project in the business district, we guarantee the study of your request and put our professional skills at your disposal to accompany the construction of your project in the Paris La Défense area.

Rules for occupying the public domain for an economic activity
Occupation of the public domain of Paris La Défense for the purpose of carrying out an economic activity is regulated by the general code of public property.
The economic activities concerned are in particular:
- advertising, artistic, cultural and sporting events
- commercial operations,
- promotional operations with or without sale,
- shooting (video, photo, drone) for advertising or filming.
For economic activities whose occupation of the public domain is subject to a prior selection procedure, find all calls for projects, advertising notices following spontaneous expressions of interest launched by the establishment, as well as award notices.
For economic activities occupying the public domain for a surface area less than or equal to 600 m² and for a period not exceeding one month, find the General Conditions governing the terms and conditions for granting an authorization to occupy the public domain of Paris La Défense, the associated fee schedule and the application form.

Following the study of your project and its validation, an estimate will be sent to you in order to guarantee the reservation of the desired spaces on the dates requested.
