In Paris nightlife news, the Chacha Club finally reopened on May 20th, Chez Moune in Pigalle reopened the end of last month, and Rasmus Michau (of Bagatelle party fame) opened an upscale karaoke bar near the Centre Pompidou called Le Renard. And despite the death of one partygoer at Le 1515 (he fell down the stairs), it’s still open…for now. The famous Dîner en Blanc takes place somewhere in Paris June 10th…even those who have been invited will only find out the moment they’re dropped off at the secret (and usually very public) location. Photos from the 2008 Dîner en Blanc.
One of the biggest parties of the month is Die Nacht à Bagatelle on June 5 (after Louis XIV’s summer festival in the Tuileries on June 5, 1662). There will be shuttles from 9pm-4am from 33bis Ave Pierre Premier de Serbie (bus stop 32) to the Bagatelle gardens. The party starts at 11pm. To get on the list email: lanuit@die-nacht.fr
Hi there, am celebrating my birthday with family in Paris on Saturday July 3rd. Was hoping to go for dinner and drinks and I’m wondering if you have any recommendations of special events, or a nice spot for a few drinks and dancing, without the snootiness or unbearably long queue?
