Our selection features six events, from Marseille Chanot to the CEPAC Vélodrome. The dates and times listed below make it easy for you to see the daily schedule, find out about professional access, and locate useful services to help you plan your return to the hotel.
The 64th Annual ESPE Meeting, to be held from Tuesday, September 8, through Thursday, September 10, 2026, in Marseille Chanot, will bring together specialists, researchers, and healthcare professionals to discuss pediatric endocrinology. The official language of the conference will be English.
When work begins on Tuesday at 8 a.m., the day will continue until 8 p.m. The next two days are scheduled from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., so it’s best to plan a single trip and bring all the necessary documents for a full day on site.
The Marseille Chanot site, which is accessible via Metro Line M2, is served by the Rond-Point du Prado station. From Joliette, the route continues on the same line to the exhibition center area.
On Thursday, September 24, and Friday, September 25, AIM 2026 will bring together companies, decision-makers, and experts at the CEPAC Vélodrome. The event will focus on artificial intelligence, emerging technologies, and their impact on the economy.
Registration will open at 6 a.m., and the first sessions will begin at 7 a.m. on both days. The program will combine presentations, meetings, and networking opportunities. To make the most of the early discussions, it’s best to have your badge and itinerary ready before leaving the hotel.
Rond-Point du Prado serves both Marseille Chanot and the Vélodrome area, making the M2 line a common hub for several events this fall.
From Friday, September 25, to Monday, October 5, 2026, the Marseille International Fair will take place at Parc Chanot. Open to the general public, it is also a major trade event for exhibitors, brands, and industry professionals who will come to showcase their products or meet with their partners.
The after-work events will take place from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., with several extended evenings. On Saturday, September 26, and Saturday, October 3, the activities will continue until 11:00 p.m.; a late-night event is also scheduled for Thursday, October 1.
Setup, public viewing, and takedown days each require different arrangements. If you are participating as an exhibitor, please contact the organizers directly for information about your staff access, your hall, and the time slots reserved for deliveries.
The SFMU Interactive Thematic Days, which will take place from Wednesday, October 7, to Friday, October 9, 2026, in Marseille, will begin on Wednesday at 4:30 p.m. with a welcome reception for participants, followed by the official opening at 6:00 p.m.
Thursday will be devoted to thematic workshops, while the summary sessions and final discussions will take place on Friday. This allows emergency medicine professionals to arrive in Marseille on Wednesday and set aside two full days for collaborative sessions.
The program includes several activities and locations. Please review your registration confirmation before your trip to identify the exact meeting point for each workshop.
The ICID International Congress, to be held from Monday, October 12, through Saturday, October 17, 2026, at Marseille Chanot, will bring together researchers, experts, and decision-makers to discuss irrigation, drainage, and sustainable water management.
The conference and exhibition will take place from Monday, October 12, through Wednesday, October 14, while the organization’s meetings and activities will continue through Saturday. Your departure time will therefore depend on the sessions to which your registration grants you access.
For attendees juggling back-to-back conferences, meetings, and personal work, the desk in each room and the hotel’s business corner offer two complementary spaces upon returning from Chanot.
The Solutions CSE Marseille Trade Show, which will take place on Thursday, October 15, and Friday, October 16, 2026, in Hall 8 at Marseille Chanot, is aimed at representatives of social and economic committees as well as the professionals who support them.
The doors will be open continuously from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on both days. Since admission requires registration and a professional badge, please have your supporting documents ready before attending the conferences and visiting the exhibitors.
From the hotel, the Joliette station is a 10-minute walk away. The M2 line goes directly to Rond-Point du Prado without requiring a transfer. Upon arrival, Marseille Chanot and the Vélodrome area are accessible from this station.
The park also recommends buses 19, 21, 22, 23, 41, 44, 45, 72, and 83, depending on your starting point. When the event is very crowded, it’s a good idea to allow extra time for badge checks and finding the lobby.
Our front desk is open 24 hours a day. The staff can provide directions or arrange a taxi upon request.
The Hôtel La Joliette by Esteem is a 4-star hotel with 64 air-conditioned rooms, located at 49 Avenue Robert Schuman. Its five room categories, ranging from 17 to 30 square meters, feature Wi-Fi, a desk, and a safe.
After returning from a trade show, the heated indoor pool is open from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m., by reservation. The fitness center remains open 24 hours a day, the bar is open to guests from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m., and room service is available from 3 p.m. to 11 p.m.
The front desk, concierge service, and secure luggage storage are also open 24 hours a day; you can leave your belongings at the hotel if your event begins before you have access to your room or ends after you’ve checked out.
The start of the school year will feature, among other events, the annual ESPE meeting, AIM, the SFMU Interactive Thematic Days, the ICID conference, and Solutions CSE. The Marseille International Fair will also be of direct interest to exhibitors and businesses.
