Costruito per l'Esposizione Universale del 1900, il Grand Palais des Champs-Élysées è un monumento in stile Beaux-Arts e Art Nouveau, celebre per la sua colossale copertura in vetro a volta a botte. Dopo un restauro da 466 milioni di euro, ha riaperto completamente nel 2025 con le Galeries Nationales ampliate per le grandi mostre, un nuovo spazio scientifico per bambini e una maggiore capienza per i visitatori. La sua monumentale Nave ospita fiere d'arte, sfilate di moda ed eventi performativi (ed è stata sede di eventi olimpici nel 2024), mentre nell'ala ovest è previsto il ritorno del museo scientifico Palais de la Découverte.
