3 - A real living space

Beyond the new models and the vehicles on display, Citroën aims to make its booth a truly vibrant space throughout the Paris Motor Show. It has been designed to be a lively, welcoming and accessible space all week long, in keeping with the brand’s spirit.

The mezzanine: a space covering more than 200m2 where visitors can take a step back and recharge their batteries. Furnished by our partner Fermob, showcasing its Sixties and Rivage collections, this area will host various talks as well as the Bistrot and provide a place to take a break.

The mezzanine will also host our partner Spotify in a dedicated, freely accessible area. Visitors will enjoy a unique digital experience there: a music quiz that reveals which Citroën model is right for them, followed by a personalised playlist for their next road trip. Four DJ nights will punctuate the week, featuring live sets behind the decks. This partnership underpins Citroën’s aim to create a vibrant stand that changes pace as the day progresses. Music thus becomes a meeting point with the public, where cars, culture and entertainment come together.

DJ Sets:

Thursday 15 October             6.00 pm

Friday 16 October                  8.45 pm

Saturday 17 October             7.30 pm

In the same vein, food lovers will be able to enjoy culinary events at the ‘Bistrot Citroën’. Throughout the week, various resident chefs will be hosting culinary sessions centred on the great classics of French cuisine, from the croque-monsieur to pâté en croûte, not to mention the jambon-beurre and the œuf mimosa. Hosted by Vincent Ferniot and designed as occasions for conviviality and sharing, these events will allow visitors to extend their experience of the booth in a thoroughly welcoming atmosphere. The programme will be rounded off by ‘Sweet Breaks’ featuring croissants and (Proust’s) madeleines, as well as ‘Ice Cream Breaks’, which will punctuate the days and provide further opportunities for visitors to come together.

Every day at the Bistrot on the mezzanine: at 9.45 am, fresh croissants; at 12.00 pm, a culinary demonstration with a resident chef; and at 4.00 pm, a gourmet break.

Motorsport, the very heartbeat of a car brand, will not be overlooked, with the presence of MotorSport drivers and managers who will be meeting the public
