November 14 at 11:55pm (This weekend) +43
Le Duc des Lombards · Les Halles • Free
After midnight, the real magic starts. Le Duc des Lombards opens its stage for late-night jam sessions where pros and brave amateurs trade solos until the wee hours. Entry is free with a drink purchase, no reservations needed: just show up and see who shows out.
Sundays at 9pm
Dr Lupin · Pigalle • $$
Guitarist Sandro Zerafa and bassist Yoni Zelnik team up for an intimate duo performance, reimagining American Songbook standards and Brazilian melodies with subtle interplay.
November 17 at 8:30pm +51
Vieux Belleville · Belleville • $$$
Dinner comes with a soundtrack at this old-school Belleville bistro, where accordion nights turn the whole room into an Edith Piaf singalong. Order the Canard à l'Orange and don't be shy: guests have been known to take the mic.
Thursdays
Vieux Belleville · Paris • $$$
Step back into old Paris at this weekly sing-along where a barrel organ sets the tune and strangers become friends. Expect communal tables, hearty French dishes, and a warm, unpretentious atmosphere that feels like a family gathering.
Fridays at 6pm
Musée Jacquemart-André · 8th Arr.
Sip something cold in a gilded courtyard as jazz drifts through the air. The Jacquemart-André afterwork swaps stiff gallery vibes for lounge chairs, sharing boards, and warm Parisian nights.
Fridays
Musée Jacquemart-André · Paris
Step into a Belle Époque mansion that feels almost unreal, then unwind with sharing platters and drinks in the courtyard guinguette as jazz plays under the garlands. The art is still there, but the vibe is pure Friday escape.
Browse Paris neighborhood by neighborhood, get ideas just for you, or ask me anything.

Start with the exhibition or performance that interests you, then build the afternoon around it. Check the temporary exhibitions at the Musée d'Art Moderne de Paris, or the performance programme at Palais Garnier. One show and time to talk about it over dinner makes a good plan.
Tell me that when you ask. I’d start with exhibitions, live music, or dance. For theatre, comedy, and talks, check the performance language and whether surtitles are available before booking. An English description doesn’t necessarily mean an English-language show.
Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.
You can browse these pages without an account. Sign in to save activities and help me learn your taste, so future suggestions have a better starting point.
Outgoing is free to use. Events have their own admission prices, including some that are free. Check the listing for prices and booking details before making plans.
