ABOUT THE FAIR
Histoire Zen is far more than a traditional trade fair – it offers a holistic experience that nourishes body, mind, and soul. Its name symbolizes the core mission of the event: Histoire as the story of well-being, and Zen as a representation of inner peace, balance, and mindfulness. Every year, it attracts a diverse audience interested in natural healing methods, personal development, spiritual practices, and sustainable lifestyles.
The upcoming edition will take place at the modern ARENA du Pays d’Aix in Aix-en-Provence – a centrally located venue offering excellent comfort and superb transport connections.
Organized by the eponymous event company, Histoire Zen is regarded as France’s leading public fair for alternative medicine, natural health practices, and spiritual growth. The event goes well beyond the scope of a conventional health fair: it brings together traditional naturopathy, gentle therapeutic methods, and contemporary trends in organic cosmetics, detox culture, and life coaching – all within an inspiring and thoughtfully designed setting.
Key topics include well-being and personal growth, such as life and relationship coaching, school orientation guidance, and massage techniques like Kobido. Gentle medicine also plays a major role, with offerings from naturopathy, Traditional Chinese Medicine, hypnosis, Reiki, Laochi, sophrology, and more. A dedicated space for spiritual healing and divinatory arts invites visitors to explore tarot reading, palmistry, astrology, and related disciplines. The program is further enriched by lithotherapy featuring healing stones and fossils.
A distinctive feature of the fair is its strong support for regional artisans and organic producers, with a focus on handmade products “Made in France”, organic food, and natural cosmetics. Expert talks and interactive workshops enhance the visitor experience by providing valuable insights and inspiration – prioritizing genuine engagement and knowledge-sharing over simple product promotion.
Exhibitors represent a wide range of fields, including naturopathy, body therapy, yoga, meditation, organic product development, spiritual counseling, and coaching. Visitors include professionals – such as naturopaths, therapists, and coaches – as well as individuals seeking a more conscious, healthy, and fulfilling lifestyle.
Histoire Zen is part of a nationwide series of events held annually at various locations across France. It has become a key platform for holistic living. The edition in Aix-en-Provence particularly benefits from the region’s natural beauty, cultural richness, and the venue’s exceptional accessibility. The ARENA du Pays d’Aix offers a modern, uplifting environment that perfectly reflects the spirit of the fair.
Whether you’re a professional visitor, exhibitor, or private individual, Histoire Zen in Aix-en-Provence invites you to discover new perspectives on living a healthy, mindful, and meaningful life.
The Histoire Zen will take place on 2 days from Saturday, 12. September to Sunday, 13. September 2026 in Aix-en-Provence.
