Shocking! The surreal worlds of Elsa Schiaparelli
A spotlight on the bold and inspiring work of Elsa Schiaparelli, an Italian designer whose inspiration was nourished by a special relationship with artists from the Parisian avant-garde scene of the 1920s and 1930s. On the program, 577 works including 212 costumes and fashion accessories and 365 paintings, sculptures, jewelry, perfume bottles, ceramics, posters and photographs signed by the greatest names of the time.

The lyrical arenas
This summer, the Arènes Lyriques event returns on the first three weekends of August, for a program of 8 evenings. The concerts take place in the heart of the Jardin des Arènes de Montmartre, a stone's throw from the Sacré-Cœur. A garden where, precisely, there are stone arenas built in 1941, a little-known place because it is only open on the occasion of certain events.
Jardin des Arènes de Montmartre, from August 5 to 20, 2022

Want to go on an adventure? Just a stone's throw from Paris, Thoiry Zoo welcomes you to live a unique experience.
