SIAE, as it is called (International Aeronautics and Space Exhibition), is held every two years, in odd years, in June. In even years, it gives way to the Farnborough Air Show in England. For this 2017 edition, the Paris Air Show opens its doors to professionals in the sector from Monday 19th to Thursday 22nd June. Aeronautical experts, salespeople, engineers, as well as journalists and photographers will have privileged access to the new products. Then, from Friday the 23rd to Sunday the 25th, it will be the turn of the general public. On these three days, the doors will open at 8:30 a.m. and close at 6 p.m.
For the general public, the ticket price for the show is 14 euros per day. Children up to 7 years old have free entry. For groups (minimum 15 people) the price is 12.50 euros. Included in these amounts is a “simple” entry to the Paris Air Show. If you want to use a place on the tribune for the flight demonstration, you need to count 11 euros, for an adult as well as for a child (a combined Salon Tribune ticket is also available at a price of 25 euros).
SIAE is held very precisely at this address: Parc des Expositions Paris-le Bourget / Aéroport Paris-le Bourget / 93350 Le Bourget.
