Bonsaï Culture Expo 2026 au Parc Floral de Paris

Bonsaï Culture Expo is a family event for lovers of bonsai and of Japanese arts and culture. It takes place at the Parc Floral de Paris, in the 12th arrondissement.

Bonsaï Culture Expo 2026 – 6th edition

Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 November 2026 – Parc Floral de Paris

For the very first time in France, and perhaps even in Europe, Bonsaï Culture Expo welcomes, into this exclusively male world, a Japanese woman expert in bonsai: Kaori Yamada, 5th generation of the Seikou-en nursery in Omiya, in the historic heart of the bonsai village. The daughter of Tomio Yamada sensei, she carries on and develops Saïka Bonsai, a unique style created by her father.

During the event, she will give an exceptional demonstration by creating a Saïka Bonsai composition, which will then enrich the bonsai collection of the Parc Floral de Paris – the very first permanent bonsai collection created in Europe, in 1989.

The programme includes:

Exceptional bonsai within the EXPO pavilion.

Demonstrations by Kaori Yamada, translated into French.

Bonsai professionals from France, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands and elsewhere.

High-quality craft potters.

Street-food stalls and Japanese artisans.

You can also vote online for your favourite bonsai for the public prize. Come and add to your collection or adopt your first bonsai and learn how to look after it.

Discover this millennia-old Japanese art over a weekend at the Parc Floral de Paris.
