The eleventh edition of Sneakers Event, the Parisian convention dedicated to sneaker lovers, collectors and retailers, will be held on Sunday 1st April at the Carrousel du Louvre venue. A sneakerhead heaven, the convention was formerly held at the Carreau du Temple, and this year will occupy an exhibition area of more than 3,700 m2. Nearly 250 exhibitor stands are expected, showcasing over 20,000 pairs of sneakers.



Besides being a forum for selling or swapping sneakers, the event, open to the general public and expecting to attract nearly 5,000 visitors, will also stage a solidarity drive in partnership with French social blog/YouTube channel Camino TV and eBay. Each visitor will be invited to leave a pair of sneakers they no longer wear, and the shoes collected will be redistributed to people in need via charitable association Maraude du Cœur.

The event, organised by Camino TV, is scheduled from 10 am to 7 pm, with entrance ticket at €10.
