What to do this Monday, January 1, 2024 in Paris and the Ile-de-France region? As a public holiday, many places are closed. So we're taking a look at all the possibilities for outings, stores, museums and other places to visit on this day off during the school vacations.

Having partied the night away (or not), are you looking for a nice walk, an idea for an outing, a brunch or a cool exhibition? In this second week of the school vacations, there's no shortage of ideas, even on a public holiday.
