We're going to watch a documentary about the Petite Ceinture railway!

Set up on the Petite Ceinture railway tracks in Paris, Gare aux Docs is installing its giant screens all summer for a 8th XXL edition. And since it's one of the most anticipated summer events in Paris, it deserves a unique and iconic location to welcome all its participants! So, we're heading to the tracks of La REcyclerie (18th district), every Friday and Saturday until August 30, featuring many documentaries and films to enjoy 100% for free from a lounge chair under the stars.

We’re singing the summer hits at La Flèche d’Or

Grab the mic and warm up those vocal cords: this Friday night, La Flèche d’Or transforms into a karaoke paradise. A big, sweet, and wild musical party where everyone sings together in a whirl of joy and kindness. On the playlist: the biggest summer hits (some of which may have slipped your mind) and guilty pleasures to belt out at full volume. It’s pay what you can, and it supports a place that brings us together and really needs our love right now!

We're soaring to Brazil with the Rio Carnival at La Marbrerie

Get ready to show off your best dance moves! This Saturday, La Marbrerie will transform into Rio de Janeiro for a samba night basking in Brazilian sunshine! From 7 PM to midnight, let yourself be swept away by the Samba Roda from the Zabumba collective, with fiery rhythms, dancing voices, and drums keeping the beat. Around the table, just like in Rio or São Paulo, musicians and audience become one, singing classics and hidden gems. It’s going to be a fiery, friendly, and irresistible evening... in Montreuil, but with our hearts in Rio!

We're going to see Tiakola in a free concert!

squo;anniversaire des JO

Exactly one year after the Olympic flame, it's time for the fire of rap! Tiakola, a child of La Courneuve who became a triple platinum star and was crowned four times at the Flammes 2025, is back where it all began. This Saturday, he's putting on a 100% free concert on the big stage at Bel Été, in Georges-Valbon Park. An exceptional show to celebrate the anniversary of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, leading to a sparkling grand finale: fireworks lighting up the sky and stars in our eyes.

Let’s enjoy an outdoor movie at La Villette

This weekend, the iconic outdoor cinema at La Villette Park makes its grand return for a month, after a break in 2024 (thanks to the Olympics). Settle in comfortably on a deck chair or a blanket, under the stars or around a lovely picnic, it’s the perfect chance to (re)discover some masterpieces of cinema, especially now that the rain has decided to take a break. The cherry on top? It’s 100% free!

Let’s indulge in Mauritian street food from Ti Dodo Gourmand

Meeta, a chef with a big heart, took on a challenge: to share with the hungry folks of Rue de Lappe (11th) some little-known specialties from Mauritius, where she spent half of her life. And that's how Ti Dodo Gourmand was born, the first spot for Mauritian street food in Paris where you can treat your taste buds at sweet prices. On the menu: influences from Indian, African, European, and Asian cuisines that shape Mauritian cooking, including a Crazy Dipain, a fusion sandwich of Eastern and Mauritian cuisine!

An extraordinary scenario that promises an exciting day of action!
