For the third year, Paris will be celebrating a festival dedicated to bears. It is usually only celebrated in villages in the Pyrénees but has recently caught on. You can expect bear-themed activities, a parade and even a “savage” dj set! There will also be a particular focus on Romania this year because it is the country with the largest bear population in Europe.

Doisneau Et La Musique

4th December – 28th April
Paris

An interesting exhibition because Doisneau wasn’t a musician, but rather a photographer. However he particularly photographed the musical scene in Paris for around 60 years from the 1930s onwards. His exhibition introduces you to famous French singers and jazz musicians of the time!
