In just 4 years, the Salon de l'Escalade has secured its place as the first and only international gathering of the Verticality stakeholders in France.
The soaring popularity of climbing among an ever-growing number of practitioners, combined with increasing demanding exhibitors expectations, have strengthened our determination to make this event worth participating to for its whole ecosystem.
For this very reason, besides our multi-faceted approach to Vertical Climbing in its wide diversity, we're more than ever focusing on new-practitioners as the key contributors to the recent democratisation of climbing, yet overturning its rules and influencing its codes.
The formula for the next edition has therefore been rethought to reach higher participation levels than ever. Want to find out more? Keep an eye on our next publications!
