Animotions Chambéry Show 2026: minerals, fossils and dinosaurs

The Animotions show in Chambéry returns for its seventh year on 17–18 October 2026 at the Savoiexpo exhibition centre. It has become a regular date for collectors, enthusiasts and families hunting for rare mineralogy, palaeontology and craft pieces. International exhibitors bring minerals, fossils, gemstones, crystals and designer jewellery, alongside wellness-focused stands. The fair pairs with the Dinomania exhibition of life-size dinosaurs and a prehistoric display that keeps younger visitors entertained. Across the weekend there are talks, workshops and food areas for anyone who wants to learn and buy with confidence. The venue sits within easy reach of central Chambéry, so staying near Savoiexpo lets you make the most of both days without rushing.
