About this event
Paris's beloved free open-air cinema returns to the great lawn of Parc de la Villette for a month of evening screenings under the stars. Audiences bring blankets and picnics to watch a curated season of classics and crowd-pleasers on a giant inflatable screen. Deckchairs are available to rent, but a spot on the grass and the film itself cost nothing, making it one of the capital's most convivial summer traditions.
Why we picked it
An iconic, genuinely free Parisian summer ritual that draws big local crowds nightly across the whole reporting window.
Free entry
Free entry to the lawn and screenings; optional paid deckchair/blanket rental.
