Going on a short break to Paris? When you get there, make sure you go to the nearest newsagents and ask for 'l’Officiel des spectacles'. This small guide will help you plan all your outings. Published every Wednesday (day of the week when new films are released in France), it gives detailed listings of all the cinema and theatre programmes, concerts, temporary exhibitions, and museums. Prices, performance times, opening times, full address and phone numbers, it’s got it all. It also includes information on monuments you can visit in and around Paris, trips on the river, restaurants (classified by type of food), and children’s entertainment. And it only costs 0.40 Euro! An incredibly useful thing to have in your pocket or in your bag - especially when it’s 'la journée du cinéma', a special day for cinema lovers: you buy a ticket for the day and you can watch as many films as you want! With over 100 cinemas in Paris, showing new releases as well as worldwide classics, you probably won’t regret your 0.40 Euro investment!
