YOWFLY at Coupe Icare 2026

Mark your calendar: September 17–20, 2026. Saint-Hilaire du Touvet, French Alps. Booth H19.

YOWFLY is heading to the 53rd Coupe Icare — the world’s largest free flight gathering — and we’re inviting every paragliding pilot, school, club, and prospective distributor to visit us at Booth H19.

Why Coupe Icare Matters

Since 1974, Coupe Icare has been the heartbeat of the global free flight community. Held each September in the French Alps above Grenoble, the event draws over 9,000 pilots and spectators from around the world for a week of flying, competitions, exhibitions, and celebration.

What started as a hang glider festival has grown into a multi-disciplinary free flight celebration — featuring Icarnaval (the legendary costume flying contest), Icare Expo (the trade show floor where gear brands launch their latest), Icare Show (aerial demonstrations), and the celebrated Icare Cinema.

For pilots, it’s the one place on earth where you fly alongside legends, test new gear on the ridge, and catch the vibe that only a mountain town filled with paragliders can produce.

YOWFLY at Icare Expo — Booth H19

This year, YOWFLY will be exhibiting at Booth H19 throughout the full event (September 17–20, 2026). Whether you’re a pilot looking for your next piece of gear, a school evaluating training equipment, or a distributor exploring new brands to represent — our team will be on-site and ready to connect.

Come say hello. We’d love to meet you.

What We’re Bringing

YOWFLY designs and manufactures paragliding and free flight gear with a focus on quality, practicality, and value. Our current lineup on display at Icare includes:

• Fast Pack Bag — A lightweight drawstring packing bag designed for pilots who need to compress and protect their wing. Ripstop Nylon construction, available for solo and tandem wings.
• Concertina Bag — A roll-top compression bag that accordion-folds your paraglider wing into a compact package. Ideal for travel, transport, and storage.
• Paragliding Harness Simulator — A ground-training harness used by flight schools worldwide. Helps new pilots build correct body positioning before their first thermal.

Come to Booth H19 to see the full range, ask questions, and talk gear with the YOWFLY team.

For Prospective Distributors & Partners

YOWFLY is actively expanding its global distribution network. If you’re a retailer, importer, or flight school looking to stock quality paragliding accessories at competitive wholesale prices, we’d like to hear from you.

At Icare, we’ll have distributor pricing information and lead times available. We’ll also be available to discuss partnership terms, custom branding options, and volume commitments.

The paragliding accessories market is growing steadily in Europe, Southeast Asia, and the Americas. YOWFLY’s combination of reliable quality and accessible pricing makes us a strong shelf item for retailers and an effective training tool for schools.

If you won’t be at Icare, reach out via our contact page — we’re happy to start a conversation any time.

For Pilots & Schools

Not a distributor? No problem — pilots and flight school operators are equally welcome at Booth H19.

The Fast Pack Bag and Concertina Bag are practical additions to any pilot’s kit. Both are built to last, pack down small, and handle rough transport. The Harness Simulator is already in use at schools across Europe — a straightforward, low-cost piece of ground training gear that pays for itself quickly.

Bring your questions. We’ll have samples at the booth.

See You in Saint-Hilaire
