The Parisian
 

Radioactive Man.

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.

This week sees Mr Sarkozy heading full tilt into pro-nuclear mode, and there are some pretty unique reactions going on in Parisian culture this week too - Laurent Garnier's live set at Salle Pleyel should be pretty spectacular, and iTAL tEK/Headhunter at Glaz'art is sure to be explosive.

Elsewhere there's heavy funk from The Whitefiled Brothers, Takeshi Kitano's redefinition of art, the inimitable Otto von Schirach at Belushi's and pure positive vibes from the legendary DJ Spinna at Djoon on Friday.

See you out there!

Many thanks to this week's sponsor, bombshop.
