The Paris Book Festival, formerly called the Paris Book Fair or Livre Paris, is a major literary event created in 1981 by the National Publishing Union (SNE). Initially organized under the dome of the Grand Palais, the fair aims to present publishers' funds and create "the largest bookstore in the world" for a few days. Over the years, the event has undergone several significant transformations. In 2016, it was renamed Livre Paris, then in 2022 Festival du Livre de Paris.
After an organization contract awarded to Reed Exposition France, the SNE created an events subsidiary to manage the organization of the show itself.
Each year, the show invites a country of honor and welcomes hundreds of authors, publishers and visitors. On the occasion of this festival of letters, books, poems and beautiful works, you will find rental at A- Audiovisual rental of all high-tech equipment capable of enhancing your stand, such as ultra-directive sound showers, reading lights, LED screens or touch screens
