Every two years, the Maisons of the LVMH group open up what they keep closed the rest of the time. From October 16 to 18, 2026, the sixth edition of the Journées Particulières, "At the Roots of the Dream", unlocks 71 locations in 13 countries, including around twenty addresses in Paris and the Île-de-France region. Everything is free, by reservation, and some places can be visited simply by arriving.

The Dior Gallery, Avenue Montaigne

30 Avenue Montaigne is already a museum, but during the Journées Particulières (Special Days), the visit takes on a new dimension: "Nature Meets Haute Couture," with the workshops and sources of inspiration of the House recounted from the inside, where Christian Dior presented his first collection in 1947.

Chaumet, the private mansion at 12 Place Vendôme

"12 Place Vendôme, dreams of tiaras": the jeweler opens the salons of its private mansion, where Chopin lived his last months, and his study of drawings. The exhibition traces the creation of a tiara, from sketch to nickel silver, the gray metal model that precedes the gold and gemstones.

47 Celine, the workshops at the Hôtel Colbert de Torcy

On Rue Vivienne, behind the façade of a 17th-century townhouse, Celine set up her ready-to-wear workshops. The tour shows the transition from drawing to garment, the cutting tables, the fitting muslins, and the hands that assemble the pieces.

Rue Vivienne, 75002 Paris

Guerlain, La Réserve des Sublimes

At 68 Champs-Élysées, the oldest perfume house in the group opens its Réserve des Sublimes, the cellar where rare raw materials slumber, and allows visitors to experience what they cannot buy: absolutes, woods, and flowers before they become a bottle.

La Samaritaine before opening

The department store on rue de Rivoli can be visited in the morning, before the customers arrive: the Art Nouveau glass roof, the monumental staircase, and the 1907 peacock fresco, restored for the 2021 reopening, with those who bring them to life.
