Paris, 24th March 2025 – NRF 2025: Retail’s Big Show Europe, the largest retail event in Europe, will take place in Paris from 16 to 18 September 2025. This inaugural edition marks the fusion of Paris Retail Week’s legacy with the global expertise of the National Retail Federation. By bringing together the strengths of the European and North American retail markets, the event will fully embrace its theme: Retail Together
NRF Retail’s Big Show: Europe will be the most comprehensive retail gathering in Europe and marks a significant shift from a national gathering to a truly international experience,” said Arnaud Gallet, Retail Business Unit Director at Comexposium. “Five years post-pandemic, the retail industry remains resilient and agile and is repositioning itself for a new generation of consumers and profound evolution as artificial intelligence drives innovation and efficiency at every level.”

Retailers are faced with meeting the demands of consumers worldwide who are experiencing heightened uncertainty amid political change, ongoing regional conflicts and the tightening of family budgets. NRF Retail’s Big Show: Europe will address major challenges and opportunities facing the retail market including:

  • Seamless, unified retail
  • Store design innovation and technology
  • Logistics and the supply chain
  • CSR and ESG
  • Expansion of marketplaces
  • Payments innovation
  • CRM systems
  • The intelligent use of data
  • Fraud and cybersecurity


The event will feature a world-class exhibition and exclusive tours with more than 480 international exhibitors including Vusion Group, Relex, Stripe, Zebra, NielsenIQ, SOTI and SymphonyAI. The expo hall will span 25,000 m² across two pavilions (Hall 4 and Hall 6), and will highlight the latest advancements in retail digitalization, logistics, seamless solutions and customer engagement technologies. Expo tours will be offered as well as store tours of innovative retail spaces throughout Paris.

The Innovation Lab & Startup Hub is a dedicated space spotlighting breakthrough technologies and emerging brands that are shaping the future of commerce, and the Big Ideas sessions will serve as a platform for exhibitors to showcase cutting-edge innovations and emerging trends.

Throughout the conference, international CEOs will deliver keynote speeches, offering their strategic vision on the future of retail. In addition, senior industry leaders will take part in topic-based breakout sessions to discuss key challenges and opportunities facing the sector. These interactive sessions allow attendees to explore solutions tailored to their specific business needs.

NRF and Comexposium successfully launched NRF 2024: Retail’s Big Show Asia Pacific last June, and this first edition in Paris, will unite the retail ecosystem across Europe.
