In Paris, there’s always something happening—there are endless good reasons for a weekend getaway to the City of Light.
Every trip to Paris brings its share of surprises and new experiences. Since the pandemic, cycling has become widely popular on the streets of the capital. Ahead of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, many monuments have been renovated and now shine in their full glory, and Notre-Dame is more radiant than ever after five years of restoration work. Over recent years, Paris has transformed into a musical theatre capital, offering an enormous variety of shows. More generally, the constantly renewed calendar of performances, major exhibitions, and sporting events keeps our thirst for culture, knowledge, and entertainment alive. Parisian fashion sets the trends and is itself constantly evolving—just like the gastronomy. Restaurants with panoramic views are booming, and traditional “bouillons” are making a grand comeback.
One thing’s for sure: there’s always more to discover in the City of Light!

The Fondation Cartier by Jean Nouvel
On October 25, 2025, the Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain is moving to the Place du Palais-Royal, right across from the Louvre. Designed by star architect Jean Nouvel, the new building blends contemporary design with a historic setting — a real architectural gem in the heart of the city. It’s worth visiting not just for the space itself, but also for the top-notch programming.To mark the opening, and running until August 23, 2026, the exhibition “Exposition générale” looks back on 40 years of the Fondation Cartier’s collection.
