On the night of April 24 to 25, 2024, Paris was shaken by the loss of one of its greatest symbols: the wings of the Moulin Rouge had fallen. An event that upset the capital, France, and the world. The good news, though, is that after months of restoration, the famous red wings are getting ready to take flight again and twirl at the prestigious cabaret.
The return of the spinning wings of the Moulin Rouge is set for July!
Mark your calendars for Thursday, July 10, 2025, at 10:45 PM for a historic moment: the return of the spinning wings of the Moulin Rouge more than a year after their fall in the spring of 2024. To celebrate this special date, a true party will be organized!
e;e in the Place Blanche ! Music, feathers, glitter… The artists from the Moulin Rouge will be in the street in costume to celebrate this special occasion. « This is a tribute to our history, à our artists, and to everyone who has made the Moulin Rouge a place of dreams and celebration since 1889 », says Jean-Jacques Clerico, president of the cabaret.Voir cette publication sur Instagram
Over 135 Years of History
Before their fall in 2024, the wings of the Moulin Rouge had hardly ever stopped turning. They were lit for the very first time on October 6, 1889 when the cabaret opened its doors, which means it's been over 135 years since then.
On July 5, 2024, new aluminum wings made in justseven weeks were lit, just in time for the start of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Starting July 10, they will be able to turn once again, continuing to make the Moulin Rouge shine on the international stage.
