NEW FOR 2026 

Packaging Première Innovation Awards

The Premium & Luxury Awards are a first-of-its-kind initiative to recognise excellence in packaging in the luxury sector, beyond sectors such as cosmetics, wines and spirits. Part of the Paris Packaging Week Innovation Awards, this new distinction has been designed to meet a market need and reflect the growing demands for design and innovation in high-end packaging.

This programme is dedicated exclusively to promoting innovation in areas such as jewellery and watch cases, fashion and accessory packaging, exceptional gastronomic products, limited edition or collector’s gift boxes, and sustainable and ultra-personalised solutions.

NEW FOR 2026

It’s the perfect opportunity to meet key influencers from the market’s leading brands, connect with emerging names, and celebrate the most outstanding achievements in our industry.
