The renovation lasted no less than four years, but now the iconic Grand Palais in Paris has reopened to the public.

The building has been fully accessible since June of this year, and a special exhibition is already open to visitors: From the Heart to the Hand: Dolce&Gabbana. Running until March 31, 2025, this exhibition showcases a selection of unique haute couture creations. It is a visual journey through the world of Dolce & Gabbana: extravagant, elegant, and always surprising.

Will you be in Paris after March 31? Do not worry, there is much more on the program. From June 6, 2025, the Grand Palais will become the setting for the Grand Palais d’été, a new summer festival. Throughout the event, a major exhibition will be held under the famous glass roof, featuring a public square, a café, a shop, and various activities for everyone. A Brazilian parade, connecting the Champs-Élysées with the Grand Palais, promises to be a spectacular highlight.

The Grand Palais was originally built for the 1900 World’s Fair and grew into an important cultural and historical heritage site. The renovation has restored the Grand Palais to its former glory. With a surface area of 72,000 m² of glass, metal, and stone, the building in the heart of Paris has regained its original grandeur after four years of renovation. Do not miss your chance to experience the Grand Palais in all its splendor.
