Foire du Trône

As it does every year from spring, the Foire du Trône takes up residence on the Pelouse de Reuilly between the Porte Dorée and the Porte de Charenton in the south-east of Paris.

Rides as far as the eye can see

An annual meeting place for families and lovers of thrills, a whole world comes together to enjoy some 350 attractions including carousels, bumper cars, the big wheel, caterpillar rides, themed rides, haunted house, and more. Everything you need for a special, fun time is here.

Whatever your age, and whether you’re adventurous or the quieter type, you’ll find the right attraction for you. While the little ones have fun on the swing rides and slides, teenagers can test their nerve on the climbs and drops of the big dipper. When it’s time for a snack, the choice is yours. But it won’t be easy to choose between waffles, pancakes, toffee apples, candyfloss and sweets galore.

Europe’s oldest fair

This unmissable springtime Paris event, formerly known as the “Gingerbread Fair”, is not only the oldest fair in Paris but also the largest in France. This travelling fair used to be held in the Nation district before moving to its current location in the 1960s.

Formerly a collection of classic attractions, the Foire du Trône has reinvented itself to offer the public increasingly daring rides with dizzying falls from a tower, reverse bungee (catapult style) and 5D simulators.
