Over the summer, Paris becomes a seaside resort with the Paris Plages (Paris Beaches) event
Every year during the summer, the banks of the Seine in Paris take on the look and feel of a seaside resort. Bungalows, deckchairs, palm trees... everything is in place to make the most of the mild summer weather, not in pairs but this time in three main locations: the Parc Rives de Seine, the Bassin de la Villette and the Canal Saint-Martin! There are plenty of activities on offer for young and old alike: swimming and water sports in the Bassin de la Villette, as well as children's workshops, board games, books, exhibitions. And if it gets too hot, don't panic! The refreshment stands and ice-cream parlours set up for the occasion will keep young and old cool!
For the 2025 edition of Paris Plages, which coincides with the France-Brazil Season celebrating 200 years of diplomatic relations between the two countries, the event will be decked out in Brazilian colours. On the programme: an opening ball, open-air Brazilian cinema, concerts, sports, cultural and gastronomic events highlighting the richness and diversity of Brazil. This collaboration is part of a wider programme focusing on themes such as climate, diversity and democracy, thereby strengthening the cultural and social ties between France and Brazil.
