Les afterworks du vendredi
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.

Riton La Manivelle
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.

Frequently asked questions
How do I choose what to see in Paris?
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.
Can I find things to do in Paris if I don’t speak French?
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.
How can Outgoing help me find something I’ll actually want to do?
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.
Do I need an account to use Outgoing?
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.
Is Outgoing free?
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.
