After 2 years in Lyon, the Salon de l'Escalade is yet set in Grenoble!
Choosing AlpExpo Exhibition Center is a perfect way to:
- Bring the Fair closer to the mountains and large neighboring climbing sites (Drôme, Hautes-Alpes, Alpes de Haute-Provence, Vaucluse, Savoies...) and allow some of the key players in the area, located near the Grenoble Basin to play at home,
- Facilitate the accessibility of the event for the general public, AlpExpo being easily reached from Grenoble center by bicycle or public transport, as well as by car thanks to its large-capacity parking (3,000 spots),
- Anchor the Show's spirit in the heart of a metropolis whose practitioners mainly practice several Vertical disciplines: Climbing, but also Mountaineering, Canyon, Via-Ferrata and Speleology,
- Enjoy a modern, evolving and practical place, compatible with the probable growth of a meeting aiming at gathering both stakeholders and practitioners of a multi-faceted and booming discipline.
Our Hall configuration, 8,800 sqm wide, is compliant with our growing surface needs for each new edition.
