Get Warp/Ed

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.

First things first: we have five pairs of tickets for the WARP/ED event at La Villette to give away! To be in with a chance of getting yourself and a friend in to this awesome event, just subscribe before Wednesday 12h, and we'll send a special email about the competition later that day.

It's a huge week for electronic music - we have the aforementioned WARP/ED party, we have Techno Parade this weekend (with some very heavy lineups in the evening), Annie Mac at the Social Club, Mika Vainio at the Centre Culturel Suisse... all surefire hits.

In visual arts, highlights include the humanist reportage of Ara Güler at the MEP, São Paulo uncovered at the Maison des Métallos, Marie Cool & Fabio Balducci's work at Galerie Serge Le Borgne and the Portfolio festival of graphic arts at La Bellevilloise.

Many thanks to this week's sponsor, bombshop.
