The pavilion will then open to the public daily, where visitors can discover the participating brands’ latest new releases, all arranged by theme.

On 2 September, the salon will open its doors to the public with free admission, educational activities and celebrations. During this day, the FHH will also organise a brunch for the general public at the Rotonde du Mont-Blanc pavilion. Everyone will get to join in a festive occasion revolving around a time-related theme and these handmade wonders that enable us to count it.
