À propos de cet audio

 Paris listeners, whether you are an art lover, a sports enthusiast, or seeking unique experiences this early September, the City of Light has something special happening right now and through the weekend. If you are tuning in on September 6, the annual Fête de Paris is in full swing, transforming the city with vibrant historic celebrations. Tonight, the grand costume ball at the 16th arrondissement Town Hall promises live music and a magnificent buffet. Saturday and Sunday, the Jardin des Grands Explorateurs will be taken over by festival villages featuring artisans, medieval combat, swing dance lessons, street theatre, jazz, and even puppet shows. Don’t miss the thousand-costume parade on Sunday afternoon, marching from the Panthéon to Luxembourg Gardens presenting fifteen centuries of Parisian history. Entry to the parade and festival village is free, and festivities run until midnight Saturday and 8 p.m. Sunday, so you can absorb both the energy and history of Paris at your own pace.

Sports fans are in for an adrenaline rush at the Accor Arena tonight, as the UFC Paris 4 returns with French fighters Nassourdine Imavov and Benoît Saint Denis squaring off against Brazilian talent. It’s a major MMA event in Europe this season, promising fierce competition and high-energy entertainment. Tickets are still available through official platforms, so if you’ve never witnessed live mixed martial arts, it’s a spectacular outing.

For family fun with a twist, Place de la Concorde hosts Horses in the City, featuring horse parades, interactive demonstrations, and even chances for kids to learn more about horse racing. On the same day, the Westfield Forum des Halles brings free women’s handball demonstrations and introductions courtesy of the Paris 92 club, a perfect way to try a new sport and connect with the local community.

Paris Design Week is well underway, and if you love design, interiors, or architecture, you can follow an official trail throughout the city, hopping from showroom to exhibition to boutique. The monumental fashion installation at Hôtel de la Marine is the highlight, a free immersive tour with dramatic art and design that runs until September 21. Some of the biggest extravaganzas—like Le Labyrinthe by Jérémy Pradier-Jeauneau—are making waves in the design world, so don’t miss your chance to explore these iconic spaces.

Music lovers, Zaho de Sagazan takes the stage at L’Olympia tonight and tomorrow, bringing dynamic concerts to extend any evening out. Book your seats for one of Paris's hottest rising artists, or simply stroll by the legendary hall to catch the lively atmosphere.

Photography aficionados should make a stop at Musée Maillol for the final weekend of the Doisneau exhibition, or explore PHOTOCLIMAT beginning September 12, transforming Paris into an open-air gallery with monumental installations and free programming about sustainability.

If fireworks are your passion, Enghien-Soisy racecourse in nearby Val-d’Oise welcomes the International Fireworks Festival, promising a dazzling light show against the Parisian sky tonight.
