Winter in Paris
It’s the start of an exciting period for Paris Region. The winter holidays almost over, the events at Paris Expo porte de Versailles invites you to prepare your next holiday with the salon Destination Nature.
It’s also the launch of major exhibitions such as Egypt of the Pharaohs at the atelier des lumières, the new exhibition at the Musée Yves Saint Laurent or imperial silk at Versailles. A rich and varied cultural programme to spend the last days of winter in the warmth of museums and monuments.
From March onwards, you can celebrate the 150th anniversary of Impressionism with a series of events highlighting this major artistic movement. The musée d’Orsay will be bringing the 1st Impressionist exhibition “Paris 1874” back to life with an extraordinary immersive experience. So don’t miss out!
It’s hard not to mention the Cultural Olympiads, which are setting the tone for this year’s 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games and bringing sport into the museums. From “Once upon a time, there were stadiums” at the Cité de l’architecture et du patrimoine to “Match - Design and sport” at the Musée du Luxembourg, the festivities are taking place both at the stadiums and in the cultural venues of Paris Region.
With the days getting longer and the weather getting milder, it’s also time for the return of the great sporting events with the Saut Hermès, which for the third year will take place in the ephemeral Grand Palais before being transformed into the Arena Champ de Mars, the Yonex French Open and the famous Marathon de Paris.
