The La Villette outdoor cinema is finally reopening in Paris
From July 22 to August 16, the 20,000 m² of lawn await you for a festival of great films, short films, and projected shows! For this 35th edition, the focus is on celebrating the forest and nature.

You’ll be able to discover magnificent animated films, such as Studio Ghibli’s Arrietty, Ame and the Wolf Children, as well as feature films like Okja and Animal Kingdom. An eclectic selection that invites you to contemplate the world around us, marvel at its details—even the tiniest ones— and ask yourself questions about its preservation.
Free cinema… subject to availability
While the La Villette outdoor cinema is free, you’ll still need to reserve your lounge chairs online via the park’s website. Plus, if you have one, you can bring your own folding chair. Pillows and blankets are highly recommended to ensure maximum comfort.

As you know, the rest of the lineup will be revealed over the coming weeks. In any case, we’re definitely going!
