SPACE, the international livestock show held every September in Rennes, returns to Rennes Parc Expo, next to Rennes airport in Bruz, from Tuesday 14 to Thursday 16 September 2027 for its 41st edition. The organiser describes it as a global and professional show for all animal farming: 11 sector halls cover genetics, nutrition and animal health, milking, livestock buildings, energy and digital tools, with more than 230 outdoor exhibitors of farm machinery across 16 hectares and some 700 cattle and sheep on show in Hall 1. The 40th edition in 2026 counted 100,107 visitors and 1,019 exhibitors, a third of them from outside France. International visitors get in free with an international pass, while French visitors buy a day ticket online. Rennes is about 1 hour 25 minutes from Paris Montparnasse by high speed train, and the Parc Expo is on the south west edge of the city, so you can stay by the airport in Saint-Jacques-de-la-Lande or Bruz, or near the station and in the centre and use the metro and the show shuttles. This page shows live SPACE Rennes hotel rates for your dates; admission is arranged separately with the organiser.

Do you need a visa for SPACE Rennes?
Visa-free / visa on arrival

- ETIAS, the EU's planned travel authorisation for visa-exempt visitors, was not yet in operation when we checked; the EU says it will announce the start date several months ahead, so check before you fly
eVisa / visa required
- Nationals of countries such as India, China, South Africa and Türkiye need a Schengen short stay (type C) visa, applied for through France's consulates or their appointed visa centres

- The Innov'Space awards pick the year's innovations ahead of the show; in 2026 there were 32 winners, a useful shortlist for planning your visit
Insider tips from repeat attendees
- The show runs Tuesday to Thursday, so a Monday evening TGV from Paris and a Thursday evening return fit a three day visit
- In 2026 a shuttle information booth at Gate C was open from 8:00 to 19:30 each show day; it is the place to check return times to the station, the city centre and the airport
