CFIA Rennes, the food industry suppliers' trade fair, holds its 30th edition at Rennes Parc Expo, next to Rennes airport in Bruz, from Tuesday 9 to Thursday 11 March 2027. Founded in 1997, it brings together more than 2,000 exhibitors in four sectors: ingredients and intermediate food products, equipment and processes, packaging, and food safety, with more than 500 machines running across the halls. For its anniversary the show adds a new hall, 52,000 m² of exhibition space and four new villages: Energy, Smart Factory, Pack & Talks and Futur Food. The organiser, GL events, counted 23,959 visitors in 2026. Rennes is about 1 hour 25 minutes from Paris Montparnasse by TGV, and the Parc Expo sits on the south west edge of the city, so you can stay near the station or in the centre and ride the metro and bus each morning, or stay close to the airport.
