THE GRAND PALACE

THE GRAND PALACE
This family's experience:

Activities: We visited the Grand Palais, which regularly hosts events. This winter, it was transformed into a giant funfair, and the year before, it was an immense ice rink. We also saw the Picasso Mania exhibition during a school outing. We attended an excellent show retracing the history of aviation

Highlights: We really enjoyed the "Jour de fête au Grand Palais" event, a giant funfair in a covered space, where you pay for entry and then the rides are unlimited. The aviation show, with sound and light effects and the 360° vision, was amazing, especially the appearance of the three airplanes ✨
