October:
the tree leaves are falling.
The nights are getting longer. That of October 1st2nd will be sleepless for Nuit Blanche, an all-night
event that is open to each and everyone so that Paris’s
inhabitants and visitors can welcome the arrival of
the Fall.
At the end of October, those who love contemporary
art will not miss the FIAC, a fair that brings together
gallery owners, artists and collectors in Grand Palais
and Petit Palais, two magnificent buildings that were
built for the 1900 Universal Exhibition.
A few days later the 16.74 square feet of vineyards
in Montmartre will be harvested, 1762 gamay and
pinot noir vine plants. Don’t laugh at the size of the
vineyards. Wine is serious business here is France,
which is why we have a Wine & Cheese party at both
of our hotels every month.
Come soon! We are looking forward to seeing you
and sharing with you many other ideas.
See you in October.

an all-nighter in Paris on October 1st-2nd
On the first Saturday in October, as the days shorten
and autumn turns to winter, the Nuit Blanche event in
Paris offers an opportunity to see
the city in a new light. Artists take
over various areas of the city with
installations, exhibitions, street art,
light-and-sound shows, concerts,
performances, staged scenes and
creations exploring all facets of
contemporary art.
Public transport stays open throughout the
night so that spectators can create their own
routes among the dozens of avant-garde
projects put in place by international and
home-grown artists.
The Nuit Blanche was first organised in 2002,
and, much like the Fête de la Musique, is
a concept that has been taken up by other
cities in France and in other countries, its
popularity spreading all around the world.

On Sunday, the 9th of October from

the choreographer José Montalvo and
