Bienvenue, listeners, to Things to Do in Paris—your daily passport to epic escapades in the City of Light! Today’s Sunday, September 7th, 2025, and Paris is buzzing like a rugby scrum in overtime. The skies flaunt that late-summer charisma, those perfect cloud-dabbled blues inviting you out—so forget the umbrella, grab your shades, and get ready for a day packed tighter than the croissants in a boulangerie window.

Now, what’s setting the Parisian vibe today? K-culture is stealing the show at the K-Street Festival in Parc André Citroën. Imagine spicy street food, DJ sets, K-beauty, and dance covers that’ll make you reconsider your two left feet. Swing by for Korean snacks, cook-offs, and interactive art workshops. It’s an energy boost for your taste buds and your social media feed!

Meanwhile, the city’s soul goes highbrow with Les Traversées du Marais, transforming historic Marais venues into a playground of free artistic performances, installations, live music, and mind-bending exhibitions. This cultural fest sprawls across twenty sites, so wear comfy shoes and charge your phone—you’ll want evidence when you stumble into that pop-up improv opera outside a medieval church.

For drama of a different kind, Place de la Concorde hosts Les Chevaux dans la Ville: live equestrian parades and horse encounters smack-dab in the city center. Every Parisian loves a good parade, but when horses take over the streets, it’s practically Olympic-level pageantry.

For families, the Grand Palais wraps its inflatable exhibition tonight with “Euphoria”—giant air-filled artworks turning the place into a surreal wonderland. It’s the last chance to bounce around colossal art pieces before they deflate till next year. And if you need fireworks with your adventure, the International Fireworks Festival at Enghien-Soisy racecourse is ready to light up the night sky and your Instagram.

If you prefer a quiet moment, Paris Design Week is sizzling with showcase installations citywide—including an immersive tour of Hôtel de la Marine, now open for free visits with design by Jérémy Pradier-Jeauneau. Over at Swedish Institute in the Marais, Blazing Grace features cutting-edge glass art for Paris Design Week. And don’t miss the Taschen boutique’s annual private sale near the Left Bank, where art book discounts run from 25% to 75%—stash a glossy volume for your next dinner party brag.

Public transit runs on regular schedules—no strikes in sight today, but keep an eye on Metro Line 4 as they’re testing some spiffy new hybrid trains. Restaurant news alert! Le Petit Croissant in Saint-Germain just opened its doors and is apparently serving croissant ice cream. Yes, you heard that right. Croissant. Ice cream. Go, taste, report back.

For today’s must-do activities: Hit Musée d’Histoire Naturelle for kid-friendly discovery trails packed with biodiversity wonders. Wander the immersive “Fables Immersives” near Champs-Elysées, where La Fontaine’s tales come alive with wild sets and interactive performances. Grownups, get jazzy at Parc Floral’s Paris Jazz Festival—outdoor, cheap, and toe-tapping.

Local tip—Parisians love their rooftop cinemas this season, especially at La Machine du Moulin Rouge, so snag a ticket for a skyline view and film combo.

Tomorrow, the excitement continues with Soleillades street festival in Montrouge and the launch of “Parcours des Mondes,” featuring world-tribal art across Saint-Germain. Stay tuned and sharpen your curiosity for more offbeat Parisian adventures.
