Paris is gearing up for an extraordinary cinematic experience this summer! The Ciné Tarmac event is taking over the Musée de l'Air et de l'Espace du Bourget from July 3 to 5, 2026, with a series of highly original screenings. Starting at 7pm, participants can enjoy a tour of the museum and a variety of activities, before being swept away by the magic of cinema as night falls. The icing on the cake is that admission is free for under-26s, and there will be a shuttle bus to the Gare du Nord. A cinematic event not to be missed!

The National Air and Space Museum of France is one of the first aeronautics museums in the world, both for its age and the wealth of its collections. Founded in 1919, it features an exceptional historic ensemble in the three domains of flight: aerostation, aviation and space. Thanks to a rich collection, the museum tells the incredible story of the mankind’s skyward journey. It is recognized as “Musée de France” and operates under the tutorship of the French Ministry of Defense.
Located on the Paris-Le Bourget Airport hub – Europe’s top private jet airport – the National Air and Space Museum of France stands out as a lively site museum and a direct witness to contemporary evolution in aviation. On this mythical site, birthplace to world aviation and home to many resounding exploits, the National Air and Space Museum of France offers those who visit its tarmac, halls and galleries a chance for an amazing experience throughout the history of air and space conquest.
