eiffel_tower_paris

Paris boasts some of Europe’s best and most unusual festivals each year, when locals and natives mingle with visitors from all over France and indeed from all around the world.

Summer is the best time to visit Paris and this is also when many of the city’s must-see festivals take place too. Some of the most popular events are outlined in greater detail below:

Paris Plage - This is a relatively new event but has quickly become one of the most popular and a real favorite of native Parisians. Slightly miffed at the fact that their beautiful capital city happened to be located inland and fed up of getting teased by southern French people about the beautiful beaches of the Cote d’Azur, Paris decided to build its own beach. Hundreds of tonnes of sand are shipped in each summer and beaches are set up at various locations along the River Seine. One of the beaches near the Pont Neuf is specifically for sunbathing, while others are used as bases for water-sports on the river. There are even swimming pools created for those who want a dip but don’t entirely trust he river water! Paris Plage is a truly unique sight to behold in the middle of a major Capital city and possibly the most fun festival that takes place in Paris. Do though be aware that the city gets busier than usual for this event with the influx of visitors so be sure to book a Paris hotel in advance.
