The European Space Agency will be present at the 55th edition of International Paris Air Show, taking place on 16-22 June at Le Bourget airport.

ESA will join French space agency CNES and the aerospace industry in the newly established ‘Paris Space Hub’ — an initiative by GIFAS (Groupement des Industries Françaises Aéronautiques et Spatiales), highlighting the importance of space at this prestigious event.

Located near the Ariane launchers at the Air and Space Museum, the Paris Space Hub will be a dynamic platform for innovation and collaboration, showcasing Europe’s space ambitions to an international audience.

As we celebrate 50 years of advancing space for Europe, our presence at the Paris Air Show will highlight our vision for the future, ESA’s Strategy 2040 and its five goals:

• Protect our planet and climate
• Explore and discover
• Strengthen European autonomy and resilience
• Boost growth and competitiveness
• Inspire Europe

ESA’s Head of Communications Anne-Sophie Bradelle said, “Our exhibition and events at the Paris Air Show are guided by our Strategy 2040 — a unified vision for how space will serve Europe’s future, keeping the needs of European citizens at the heart of everything we do, for a better tomorrow.”

Visitors will embark on a journey through ESA’s achievements and future ambitions — from tackling climate change and exploring the origins of the Universe, to ensuring independent access to space, advancing telecommunications and navigation, as well as pioneering artificial intelligence and other disruptive technologies.

This event is an opportunity to demonstrate the benefits of space for our daily lives, celebrate achievements with ESA Member States, strengthen partnerships with the European Commission and international partners, and inspire the next generation.
