The Parisian
 

All You Need Is Love.

Welcome to The Parisian, your source for what's on this week, and this weekend, in Paris. Looking for clubs, gigs, art shows, exhibitions, film, dance and theatre in Paris? We sort through hundreds of events every week and bring you the cream of the crop.

Well, it's official - the recession is here. A quick scan of this week's events, however, shows it's purely financial - culturally we've rarely been richer. We have Lol Coxhill, Bonobo, Marina Abramović, Asger Jorn, The Chap, DAT Politics... forget property, savings and stocks - we highly recommend investing a few hours of your life in a cultural event this week. It's sure to pay off.

We've also got something a bit special for our subscribers this week: and exclusive interview and DJ mix from Panico, who will be blowing the roof off the Flèche d'Or later this week. Keep your eye on this page later this week to get your free copy.

Many thanks to this week's sponsor, bombshop.
