What are some fun things to do in Paris at night?
When I was in Paris, we did the touristy things during the day and kept a keen eye out for upcoming concerts. We couldn’t afford to go to the opera either, but we learned that for a handful of francs we could see phenomenal performances of classical music in some of the most stunning settings. We saw the soloists of the Notre Dame choir perform a mass by Monteverdi with an organist (in Notre Dame, at night), and we saw the soloists of the French National Orchestra perform Vivaldi’s Four Seasons in Sainte-Chappelle. I’m a lover of classical music, so this was right up my alley. But I would be willing to bet that if you carefully check bulletin boards and remain flexible about what you might be willing to see, you’ll find something AMAZING. Those performances rank as some of the best I’ve ever attended, and absolutely the most memorable. Bon voyage!
