In this month of December 2024, the back-to-school period and its prerogatives are already (far) behind us. So it's already time for a good time and, why not, a (good) show.
In Paris, several hundred performances take place every day. There's something for everyone, whether you're a fan of drama orhumor. Plays, dramas and comedies, magic shows,comedy... From musicals and immersive theater to cine-concert, there's something for everyone. Big stars on stage or developing artists, alone, as a duo, a trio or a troupe, there are plenty of them treading the Parisian boards every day. Whether in an intimate venue seating less than 100, or in a much larger venue in front of several thousand spectators.
So to help you navigate the jungle of shows to see in Paris, Sortiraparis has cleared the field for you.
