Pedestrian Champs-Elysées: the most beautiful car-free avenue in the world for New Year's Eve 2025 in Paris

The Champs-Élysées are reserved for pedestrians one Sunday a month, usually the first. This is an opportunity for Parisians of all ages to stroll freely along the world's most beautiful avenue, without cars. Would you like to take advantage of this not-to-be-missed stroll in the Parisian calendar? Tuesday December 31, 2024 (for New Year's Eve festivities) and February 2, 2024. There will be no pedestrianization of the Champs-Élysées in January.

As a reminder, with "Paris Respire", Paris City Hall hopes to reduce fine particle emissions. And since October 2018, the car-free perimeter has been extended to the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th arrondissements of Paris, allowing pedestrians to fully enjoy the center of the capital.

The anti-pollution plan has therefore continued to gain momentum, resulting in traffic restrictions for older cars and trucks since July 2017.

Note that on this occasion, some people take the opportunity to promote green tourism, paving the way for many good deals. Photo shoots in the middle of the most beautiful avenue in the world, breathtaking photos from the top of the Arc de Triomphe, picnics in the middle of the avenue...
