The Parisian
 

Ho Ho Ho!.

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.

What's that sound in the distance? So faint but clear... is it the jingle of bells? The drumming of reindeer's hooves? Ah no, it's the awesome system at Rex with Elisa Do Brasil firing out heavy junglist joints! Yes - there's more to a Parisian Christmas than poultry and cheese - there's Osunlade at Djoon on boxing day, Soulwaxmas at La Villette, Paolo Ventura's exhibition at Galerie Camera Obscura, Favela Chic's Christmas bash... So! Put down that fois gras, jump on a bus and go celebrate en mass!

Have a very, very merry Christmas!

Many thanks to this week's sponsor, bombshop.
