Constellation Program 2025–2030: a more vibrant Centre Pompidou than ever!
→ The iconic building in the Beaubourg district of Paris closed its doors in autumn 2025 for renovations that will allow it to return, by 2030, to its original utopian vision.
→ At the same time, the spirit of the Centre Pompidou is being brought to life in many partner venues across France and internationally, thanks to the ambitious cultural program Constellation.
→ In spring 2027, a new conservation, exhibition, and creation hub will open in Massy, in the Essonne region: the Centre Pompidou Francilien – an art-making hub. It will be previewed from October 2026 during three festive weekends!
