France Galop Event
September 5
Watch thoroughbreds thunder across one of Paris's most iconic squares. France Galop brings horse racing to Place de la Concorde for a weekend of free, open-air competition with the Luxor Obelisk as your backdrop.








1st Arr.
Stand at the center of Place de la Concorde and pivot slowly: the Arc de Triomphe, the Louvre, and the Eiffel Tower unfold in every direction. This 7-hectare square packs 3,300 years of history into one dramatic sweep, from the Egyptian Luxor Obelisk to the guillotine that claimed Marie Antoinette. Come for the revolutionary ghosts, stay for the fountain light show at sunset.
