Summary

  • “THE MONSTERS 10th Anniversary World Tour,” co-curated by POP MART and How2work, is officially heading to Paris for its highly anticipated and exclusive European stop
  • Titled “MONSTERS BY MONSTERS: NOW AND THEN,” the immersive exhibition celebrates a decade of artist Kasing Lung’s beloved universe, featuring original manuscripts, oil paintings, and an extensive collection of LABUBU figures
  • The expansive retrospective is divided into six major themed zones and is open to the public from March 4 through March 29, 2026, at the historic Hôtel du Grand Veneur

Following highly successful stops in Shanghai, Taipei, and Hong Kong, Labubu and The Monsters are officially heading to the City of Romance. Co-curated by POP MART and How2work, “THE MONSTERS 10th Anniversary World Tour” is bringing its whimsical universe to Paris, marking the exhibition’s fourth global stop and its only destination in Europe.

Titled “MONSTERS BY MONSTERS: NOW AND THEN,” the immersive exhibition serves as a comprehensive retrospective of the beloved franchise’s ten-year journey since its debut in 2015. Bringing artist Kasing Lung‘s imaginative vision to life, the showcase features a massive collection of previously unreleased manuscripts, rare oil paintings, and a complete display of collectible figures produced over the past decade.

Inviting fans to fully immerse themselves in the brand’s expansive lore, the exhibition is thoughtfully divided into six major themed zones. Visitors can explore the “Oil Painting & Sculpture Zone” to see Lung’s unique artistic observations, or step inside a miniature elven home in the “Interactive Photo Cabin,” which is filled with plush, vinyl-faced LABUBU figures.

The “Designer Collectible Zone” tracks the evolution of the Elf Squad from the original classic-color LABUBU to highly sought-after cross-brand collaborations. Meanwhile, the “Journey & Manuscript Zone” highlights Kasing Lung’s daily sketches and drafts, capturing the initial sparks of inspiration that led to the IP’s expansive global growth. Finally, the “Picture Book Zone” takes long-time fans back to where it all began, spotlighting The Monsters Trilogy that birthed the entire universe.

Following a star-studded VIP preview event that merged fashion, music, and art, “THE MONSTERS 10th Anniversary Exhibition” in Paris is officially open to the public from March 4 to March 29, 2026.
