Its audience brings packaging developers and purchasing teams into the same conversation as designers, marketers and brand leaders. Beauty and fragrance remain central, but the supplier base extends into aerosols, premium drinks and luxury goods.

The combination matters. ADF covers aerosol and dispensing technology, PCD focuses on fragrance and personal care, PLD serves drinks, and Packaging Première brings in fashion, jewelry, confectionery and other luxury products. Pentawards adds the design agencies and creative thinking behind the finished pack. A brand developing a launch can compare the container, dispensing mechanism, decoration and presentation without leaving this packaging community.

Contract manufacturers and the Full-service Zone extend the discussion beyond components to finished products. The direction of travel is toward a broader brand experience: the In-store experience Zone adds retail presentation to a show already spanning technical packaging and visual identity.

How it compares

  1. This show: Paris Packaging Week3,400
  2. Packaging Première & PCD MilanMilan, 8,012
  3. LUXE PACK MonacoMonaco, 9,000

Packaging Première & PCD Milan gives luxury brands a more concentrated route into the Italian packaging community. Its 2026 show had 312 exhibitors, with a mix spanning fashion, beauty, food and drinks. Craftsmanship, materials, the Design Hub and the Avant-Garde competition make it a strong choice when the brief centers on the appearance and construction of a premium pack. Paris brings additional depth in aerosol systems and a dedicated premium-drinks community, alongside beauty suppliers.

LUXE PACK Monaco, becoming LUXE PACK WORLD in 2027, is another close alternative for creative premium packaging. Refill and reuse, new materials, exceptional pieces and digital innovation sit alongside guided discovery and supplier meetings. A luxury brand comparing distinctive packaging concepts has a clear reason to consider Monaco; a team that also needs dispensing engineering or an aerosol supply chain gains a different range of conversations in Paris.

Paris is particularly useful when a project crosses those boundaries. Procurement can investigate a component, design can explore its presentation, and marketing can assess how the product reaches the shelf. The choice rests on the sourcing brief: Milan for its luxury craft and design community, Monaco for creative premium packaging, or Paris for the intersection of beauty, drinks, dispensing and brand design.

Paris Packaging Week suits teams developing beauty, drinks or luxury launches that need technical packaging suppliers and design partners in the same trip.

Who exhibits

The exhibitor mix goes beyond bottles and cartons. Abely Cosmetics Co., Limited combines perfume bottles, caps, pumps and decoration; Acospack focuses on Korean cosmetic packaging and dispensing. Act Beauty France brings promotional packaging, bags, accessories and formulation development, while Actega Rhenacoat serves packaging and printing. Together they show why a visitor can investigate a primary container, its finish and the wider launch presentation here. The Full-service Zone adds contract manufacturing to that component-led conversation.

Paris Packaging Week 2027

Paris Packaging Week 2027 expands into retail presentation with the In-store experience Zone, bringing point-of-sale and point-of-purchase suppliers into the mix. The luxury Innovation Awards add Stationery & Writing, Luxury Travel & Hospitality, and Home Fragrance & Luxury Living. New PCD and PLD jury co-chairs broaden the awards leadership. These changes move the discussion beyond the bottle or box toward the places and experiences in which a premium product is used. Pentawards and the Full-service Zone connect that creative work with product development.

  • For a beauty launch that needs both a pack and a finished formula, combine PCD suppliers with the Full-service Zone; Act Beauty France’s offer spans both packaging and formulation.
  • Aerosol specialists can continue technical conversations at the ADF Beer bar and the FEA-hosted ADF drinks party, where that supplier community gathers.
  • For premium drinks and luxury presentation, make room for the Champagne bar gathering as the first day closes; it becomes the focal point of the show’s evening party.
