- Open-air cinema at La Villette
Description
This is one of the essential summer meeting places in north east Paris. As the good weather arrives and the sun is setting later, the grass of the Parc de La Villette turns into a huge open-air cinema screening. With the blanket you may have wisely brought and some cushions (deckchairs are also available to rent on site for even more comfort), enjoy a full evening starting, why not, with a little picnic/aperitif before the films which follow a set theme.
A 2025 edition under the banner of dance and music
La Villette was fully involved in the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games, and the 2024 edition of “Cinéma en plein air” was exceptionally cancelled for the occasion.
So this year, the event is particularly eagerly awaited by Parisians and summer visitors alike. It's a time to be enjoyed with family and friends on the park's lawn.
And the 2025 edition is sure to be a festive one, with a programme that puts the spotlight on cinema and music. La La Land, Ballerina, Grease, Barbie, Happy Feet… Twenty-five evenings and 25 films to enjoy on the 600 m² inflatable screen. With screenings at 6pm for young audiences and 9pm for all, 'Cinéma en plein air 2025' is designed to appeal to all generations.
From blockbusters to auteur films, there's something for all tastes and ages. So don't forget to book your ticket (and your deckchair!) on the event's [website]( (https://billetterie.villette.com/home?lng=2).
(Films are shown in original language with subtitles).
