The Parisian
 

Rewind.

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.

We've teamed up with Glaz'art this week to offer our readers the chance to glide past the queue this weekend at their rather massive Limited Touch party. Make sure you're subscribed to our newsletter before Thursday to be in with a chance!

Besides bouncing off the walls to Commix and Spectrasoul, clubland is looking very attractive this week - Prins Thomas at the Social Club, Dam Funk at the Nouveau Casino, Cassius at the Tsugi party...

The art world is looking bright this week, too - Jim Hodges, Gilbert Garcin, Jim Shaw and Peter Saul plus a host of others make it a great visual week.

Finally, we wish our friends at Point Ephémère all the best with their fifth birthday celebrations - you don't look a day over three.

Many thanks to this week's sponsor, bombshop.
