August in Paris is the time to discover a seemingly quieter capital, but one that never takes a break from programming. Summer festivities are always in full swing, while the City of Light sometimes takes on the allure of a seaside resort. With its sunny days and lively evenings, the Paris region offers a range of experiences to delight everyone.
This month is marked by the Fête de l'Assomption on August 15, a day when Paris slows down a little, but the atmosphere remains convivial thanks to local festivities and summer traditions. The mood is light, with Parisians and visitors alternating between sunny terraces, strolls along the Seine and cultural discoveries.
But in Paris, there's no question of resting on your laurels! This is also your last chance to discover the season's successes before they bow out: an exhibition that's closing its doors, a summer festival that's coming to an end, or a show that won't be back until next year... if ever.
And to give you even greater visibility, this selection is updated in real time, and past events are deleted as they happen!
