ParisLongchamp racecourse offers more than 15 privatizable spaces for conferences, conventions, product launches, fashion shows and VIP cocktails. The site states 25,290 m² in total, of which 3,305 m² indoors and 21,285 m² outdoors, with room for up to 10,000 guests at a cocktail, 3,500 in a conference layout, 1,200 at a seated meal and 700 for a fashion show. It sits at 2 route des Tribunes, in the Bois de Boulogne, Paris 16th.
Seminars and company events
The main spaces are the Pavillon de l'Amphithéâtre with its garden, the Brasserie, the lawns, the Panorama on the top floor and a set of private lounges. For a company meeting, the six private lounges are the most relevant: they sit on levels 2, 3 and 4, measure 160 to 230 m² each, and can be booked independently. The site gives 200 guests at a cocktail and 150 in a conference layout for the lounges together, and describes views over the Suresnes hill or the racetrack with plenty of daylight. They suit a small committee as well as a reception.
Rooms and capacities
Stated capacities by space are 2,000 guests for the Pavillon and the Jardin de l'Amphithéâtre, 550 for the Brasserie, 500 for the Panorama and its terrace, and 200 for the private lounges. The Pelouse de Suresnes is an open-air lawn of 4,875 m² that the site says can take up to 2,700 guests, for outdoor dinners, speeches, showrooms or outdoor cinema. The 160 meter sloping grandstand is topped with glass and opens a view of the Bois, the Eiffel Tower and La Défense. The venue also lists packaged formats: the Village Festif for 200 to 500 guests and the Stations d'Hiver for 100 to 1,500 guests.
Weddings and receptions
The site lists a wedding planner service on request, and the Pavillon and its garden are presented for indoor and outdoor receptions. It does not give wedding-specific capacities, so organizers should ask the team which space fits their guest count.
Catering
Catering is handled through the venue's own offers, including the Brasserie ParisLongchamp. The official text does not name a caterer or give menus for each space, so format and supplier are confirmed during the quotation.
History and setting
The racecourse is known for flat racing and for the Qatar Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe each October. Its sloping grandstand was designed after a thoroughbred at full gallop. The venue is operated for events through Paris Society Events and is open Monday to Sunday, until 2 a.m.
