New at Art Basel Paris 2025

The upcoming edition of Art Basel Paris will take place from October 24 to 26, 2025, at the Grand Palais, located on Avenue Winston Churchill, 75008, Paris. The fair will open with a vernissage on Thursday, October 23, from 2:00 pm to 8:00 pm, and will be open to the public on Friday, October 24, Saturday, October 25, and Sunday, October 26, from 11:00 am to 7:00 pm.

This year’s edition will feature three main sectors:

• Emergence: This sector highlights Paris’s historical and ongoing role as a city where new voices are discovered and avant-garde ideas continue to take shape. It complements the fair’s broader program by focusing on emerging artists and experimental projects.
• Premise: Dedicated to curated and thematic presentations that may include works dating prior to 1900. In its second edition, the Premise sector will feature 10 projects across nine booths, with eight first-time participants joining this year.
• Oh La La!: Art Basel Paris’s special initiative that invites galleries to present new works at their booths on Friday and Saturday of the fair. For this edition, the section will be art-directed by fashion expert and journalist Loïc Prigent, under the theme “À la mode.”

As part of the fair, Airbnb will present a series of exclusive experiences, including:

• Tour Oh La La! with Curator Loïc Prigent: A guided tour led by Prigent, the renowned fashion documentarian-turned-curator, exploring the intersections between fashion and art, and how trends influence both fields. Participants will meet galleries and artists that bring this dialogue to life across the fair floor.
• Experience Bilal Hamdad’s Debut Solo Museum Exhibition: Artist Bilal Hamdad will host an intimate walkthrough of his first solo museum exhibition, Paname, at the Petit Palais. The visit will be followed by exclusive VIP access to Art Basel Paris, available only through Airbnb.
