Paris events calendar 2026

Paris runs one of the busiest event calendars in Europe: concerts, exhibitions, theatre, markets and free municipal programming happen somewhere in the city almost every day of the year.

Quick answer

Paris runs one of the busiest event calendars in Europe: concerts, exhibitions, theatre, markets and free municipal programming happen somewhere in the city almost every day of the year.

This calendar lists published upcoming events in Paris that we track on Wanderistan, sorted by date. A differentiator worth knowing: the bulk of this listing comes directly from the city of Paris's own open-data feed, "Que faire à Paris ?", published under the Etalab Licence Ouverte 2.0 — not a generic directory scrape, but the municipality's own official event agenda.

FAQ

Are there free events in Paris?
Yes — the city's own open-data agenda includes many free municipal events alongside ticketed concerts and shows. Fête de la Musique (21 June) is the best-known free, city-wide example.
