back

Paris 2018 and Paris Gay Village join forces to help you discover « Gay Paris » through the history of its neighborhoods, its streets, and its legendary figures.

Guided walking tours for about twenty people will be offered in French, English and Spanish.

The tours will take place from August 5th to 11th and will cover the evolution of the gay area of Paris from the Tuileries to the Marais, a tour focused solely on the mythical Marais, a tour about important LGBTIQ people buried in the famous Père Lachaise cemetery and a tour about lesbians of the left bank.

Registration

Open to everyone who is curious to learn more about the history and evolution of the gay areas of Paris. The commentaries of our guides will be full of quirky discoveries and anecdotes.

Learn a few things about the great history of Paris through the prism of small stories.
