Does the list appeal to you?
All that's left is to find the most beautiful cinema to watch it in, and that's just as well: in Paris, there are some fascinating cinemas where it's good to watch a film.
Le Grand Rex
When it comes to comfortable movie theaters, the Grand Rex immediately springs to mind! The Art-Deco decor and baroque feel give this cinema something atypical, for an experience that goes beyond the cinema.
MK2 Bibliothèque
The MK2 Bibilitohèque is THE cinema for couples in Paris. For almost 20 years now, its theaters have been equipped with love seats, with the central armrest that can be removed to let lovers embrace during the films. We love it!
Pathé Vill'Up
The Vill'Up cinema also offers duo seats for couples. For almost 20 years now, its theaters have been equipped with love seats, with an armrest that can be removed to let lovers embrace during the films. We love it!
Studio 28 (photo)
For those nostalgic for old Parisian cinemas, Studio 28 is one of the most prestigious. Nestled in the heart of the Butte Montmartre, this cinema is known as one of the most "cultural". In addition to its eclectic programming, it offers painting exhibitions and "7th Art" architecture.
Pathé Aéroville
Head to Aéroville (next to Charles de Gaulle airport) for a cinema like no other. Here, depending on the room, 12 people are lucky enough to be able to sit comfortably in a banquette in meridian mode to watch the film while lying down. While one seat is usually made for one person, the other can be tucked in for the ultimate romantic movie experience!
Pathé Parnasse
Reopened at the end of 2022, Pathé Parnasse offers a premium cinema experience thanks to fully reclining seats, wider than usual and developed especially for this cinema. Each row is spaced 2 meters apart, and films are projected entirely in laser. This cinema offers a technical experience and comfort that are quite exceptional in Paris.
So, we hope we've given you some good ideas for enjoying your Valentine's Day evening, whether you're a film buff or not!
