MCB by Beauté Sélection 2026 at Paris Porte de Versailles

MCB by Beauté Sélection is the leading professional trade show for the hairdressing and beauty industry in France. For three days each year, Paris Expo Porte de Versailles brings together international brands, industry suppliers, training schools and professionals from hairdressing, aesthetics, make-up and nail care. With more than 450 exhibiting brands and roughly 50,000 visitors per edition, the event blends a commercial showcase with a packed artistic programme. The agenda features stage shows, workshows, tutorials and expert conferences, alongside the Grand Prix de l'Innovation, run in partnership with L'Éclaireur, which rewards companies able to refresh their product, service and offering range. Other highlights include Futures Beauty, a trend book looking at tomorrow's salon, and a collection produced with Haute Coiffure Française. Entry is restricted to trade professionals. Beauty professionals practising in France get in free by providing their SIRET number or an invitation code, while paid tickets are available for others: €40 for a single day and €55 for the three-day pass. Children under 12 do not need a badge, and non-trade companions must buy a paid ticket. The Porte de Versailles location is convenient for accommodation searches: metro line 12, buses 39, 49, PC1 and 80, and trams T2 and T3 link the venue to central Paris, making it easy to pick a hotel based on budget and travel time to the halls.
