Paris Illuminated: Culture, Fashion & Lifestyle Highlights — Winter to Spring 2026

From winter elegance to the first signs of spring, Paris shines throughout the first quarter of 2026 with an exceptional cultural agenda. Major exhibitions, international concerts, fashion weeks and exclusive experiences make the French capital a must-visit destination at the beginning of the year.

 

Major Art Exhibitions & Winter & Early Spring 2026

 

One of the most important exhibitions of the season, this landmark retrospective explores over six decades of work by Gerhard Richter, one of the most influential contemporary artists. Painting, abstraction, photography and experimentation come together in a monumental exhibition hosted by the Fondation Louis Vuitton.

Opening in March, this highly anticipated exhibition focuses on Matisse’s late period, when the artist embraced bold colors, simplified forms and his iconic cut-outs. A celebration of artistic freedom and innovation, it marks one of the cultural highlights of early spring in Paris.

 

 

  


 

Concerts & Live Performances

 

From pop and rock to world music, jazz and hip-hop, Paris offers an impressive live music calendar across legendary venues such as Olympia, Zénith, Accor Arena, La Cigale and Salle Pleyel.

The winter season is also ideal for musical theatre, dance and contemporary performances, with productions staged at Théâtre du Châtelet, La Seine Musicale and major Parisian theatres, making cultural evenings a key part of the Parisian experience.

 


 

Paris Fashion Week – A Global Spotlight

 

The first quarter of 2026 places Paris firmly at the center of the international fashion world.

 

January 2026

  • Paris Fashion Week – Men’s Fall/Winter 2026–2027
  • Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2026

Designers, editors, buyers and celebrities gather for runway shows, private presentations and exclusive events across Paris. The city becomes an open-air fashion stage, especially in neighborhoods such as Le Marais, Saint-Germain-des-Prés and the Golden Triangle.

March 2026

  • Women’s Fashion Week – Fall/Winter 2026–2027

This major fashion moment transforms Paris into a hub of creativity, luxury and street style, with pop-ups, brand activations and private receptions shaping the city’s atmosphere.

 


 

Paris in Winter & Early Spring

 

January still offers the magic of holiday illuminations, with iconic avenues such as Champs-Élysées, Place Vendôme and Boulevard Haussmann glowing through the first weeks of the year.
By March, Paris awakens to spring, with blossoming gardens, riverside walks and café terraces reopening, offering a softer and more luminous side of the city.
