Paris

Pride & Events

The Paris Pride Parade and Festival is a joyous party that rolls across the city from Right Bank to the Left, auxiliary parties in restaurants and bars along the route and after, particularly in the Marais. Each June it attracts tens of thousands in what has become one of the most fun events in the city. But then Paris is a city that knows how to stage blow-out events like Fashion Weeks throughout the year, the July 14 (Bastille Day) parade up the Champs-Élysées with fireworks over the Arc de Triomphe, the last dash of the Tour de France past the Louvre, tennis at Roland-Garros and grand expositions of all stripes.
