Weather
Mid-to-late November at Chassieu is cool and changeable: expect daytime temperatures near 8-12 °C, overnight lows near 3-5 °C and a realistic chance of rain or morning mist on any day. The exhibition halls are indoors, but queues, shuttle stops and car parks are exposed, so bring a warm, water-resistant layer and comfortable shoes. Treat these as seasonal norms and check a short-range forecast before departure.

Cultural notes
Useful information to help you have a smooth and respectful visit.
Language and greetings
French is the working language of the fair and of most small producers. Say 'Bonjour' when you approach a stand and 'Au revoir' when you leave; a handshake is standard in business settings, while friends may use la bise. Basic French phrases are appreciated even when the exhibitor speaks English.
Business etiquette at stands
Ask before handling products or taking photographs, especially in the food and cosmetics areas. Compliments should be specific to the product or certification rather than generic; French producers often prefer a direct conversation about origin, ingredients and production methods.
Meal times and daily rhythm
Lunch is traditionally served between 12:00 and 14:00 and dinner after 19:30, though show hours at Eurexpo run continuously. Outside the fair, some smaller shops and businesses close over lunch, so plan errands around those hours.
Dress and weather
Smart-casual is appropriate for the fair, with comfortable shoes for long days on concrete floors. November in Lyon calls for layers, a warm coat and a compact umbrella; the halls are heated but the walk from parking or tram stops is outdoors.
Payments and tipping
Cards and contactless payments are widely accepted, but some small producers may have minimum card spends or prefer cash. Service is included in restaurant bills; rounding up or leaving small change is optional and appreciated.
Accessibility and personal space
French public spaces are generally accessible, but older buildings can have narrow doors. At the fair, allow personal space in busy aisles, keep to the right on escalators and ask staff before moving chairs or displays at a stand.

Answers
Frequently asked
What is Vivez Nature?
Vivez Nature is a French consumer fair dedicated to organic food, natural health, eco-habitat, sustainable fashion and slow tourism. It brings producers, brands and practitioners together with visitors who want to live in a more natural and low-impact way.
When and where is the 2026 edition?
The 2026 edition is listed for 20-22 November 2026 at Eurexpo Lyon in Chassieu, on the eastern edge of the Lyon metropolitan area. Confirm the final dates and daily opening hours on vivez-nature.com before booking travel.
Is Vivez Nature trade-only or open to the public?
It is positioned as a public consumer fair rather than a trade-only show. Trade visitors are welcome, but the programme, tastings and workshops are designed primarily for end consumers.
What can I see at the fair?
Expect organic food and drink producers, natural cosmetics and health products, eco-construction and energy-renovation specialists, sustainable fashion, garden and permaculture displays, plus slow-tourism exhibitors. Workshops and talks usually run alongside the stands.
Who exhibits?
Exhibitors range from small French farms and artisan food producers to certified cosmetics brands, eco-builders, well-being practitioners and tourism operators. Many stands sell direct, so you can taste, compare and buy on the day.
Do I need to buy tickets in advance?
Ticket prices and opening hours are set by the organiser each year. Check vivez-nature.com for the current online and on-site rates; buying online usually avoids the queue, but do not rely on previous-year prices.
How do I get to Eurexpo Lyon by public transport?
The usual TCL route is metro line A to Vaulx-en-Velin La Soie, then a connecting bus or the show shuttle to Eurexpo, typically 15-25 minutes depending on traffic. Tram T3 serves the Décines and Meyzieu corridor with onward buses. Confirm current routes and any show-specific shuttle on the TCL and Eurexpo websites.
Is parking available at Eurexpo?
Eurexpo has large on-site car parks with paid parking during shows. Rates and gate access can change by event, so check the venue or organiser page before driving and allow extra time at peak opening hours.
Is the venue accessible for visitors with reduced mobility?
Eurexpo is a modern exhibition centre with step-free access to halls and adapted toilets. Confirm specific needs such as wheelchair loans or reserved parking spaces with the organiser before travelling.
Can I bring children? Are dogs allowed?
The fair is generally family-friendly, but check the current policy on child tickets, pushchairs and workshop age limits. Assistance dogs are normally welcome; pets are generally not allowed in the halls, so confirm with the organiser before bringing an animal.
Will exhibitors speak English?
French is the main language of exhibitors and workshops. Many larger brands and international stands speak English, but basic French phrases will make conversations with small producers easier.
Can I buy products and take them home?
Yes, many exhibitors sell direct, especially food, cosmetics and craft items. Bring reusable bags, check any food import rules for your home country, and ask about conservation or transport advice for perishable products.
Is there food at the venue?
Expect food stalls and food-truck areas at the venue, plus tastings on producer stands. If you have allergies or specific diets, check ingredients directly with the exhibitors rather than relying on general signage.
How much time should I allow for the show?
A half-day is enough for a focused visit to one or two thematic areas; a full day is more comfortable if you want to attend workshops and compare producers across food, health, eco-habitat and fashion. Allow 20-30 minutes for badge checks and queues at opening.
