A Strategic Venue in the Heart of Marseille

Marseille Chanot, officially known as the Palais des Congrès et des Expositions, is one of the largest and most accessible event venues in Southern France. Located in the city’s 8th district, just steps from the iconic Stade Vélodrome and a short metro ride from the Old Port, the venue benefits from direct public transport access and is ideal for hosting congresses, exhibitions, trade fairs, concerts, and international events.
