Paris Airshow Returns after 4 Years

After a 4 year hiatus, Paris Airshow returns in 2023 promising a feast of aviation technology and new products showcase.

The 54th edition of the show will take place at Paris-Le Bourget Airport from June 19-25. Over 2,400 exhibitors from 49 countries will be offering their military equipment and services at the event, which will be witnessed by more than 300,000 people.

A total of 158 aircraft (between mock-ups and actual aircraft) will be displayed during the Paris Air Show, including helicopters, commercial planes, business jets and combat aircraft such as Dassault Aviation’s Rafale and Lockheed Martin’s F-35. Airbus (14 aircraft) and the U.S. Department of Defense (13 aircraft) will bring the largest amount of planes to display.

Of the 158 aircraft present at the event, 18 will operate flights during the trade days and 32 during the general public days (some overlap, doing flights on both the trade and general public days).

The only confirmed airline at the show is Qatar Airways which will bring three aircraft – one each of Airbus A319, A350-1000 and G-700 Gulfstream.
