Listeners, welcome to “Things to do in Paris” with me, Oly Bennet, your globe-trotting, sports-loving adventure junkie here to turn the City of Light into the City of Laughs and Legends! Today is Thursday, November 6, 2025, and Paris is fresh, crisp, and buzzing with autumn excitement—the kind of day that begs for wild discoveries and a little bit of café-hopping between surprises. Weather? We’re talking classic Parisian fall: layers are your friend, umbrellas optional, and scarfs officially mandatory for style points.
Paris today is the ultimate playground, and the lineup of events feels like the city is hopped up on caffeine and holiday anticipation. Over at Parc des Expositions de Villepinte, the 6th World Nuclear Exhibition wraps up its run—a little less ‘radioactive fun,’ a bit more global innovation action. Meanwhile, for music fans, DJ Snake drops the bass at Aéroport de Paris-Le Bourget tonight at 8:30 PM. That's right, listeners, Paris is going full stadium mode with one of France’s finest spinning his signature sounds.
Now, let’s get artsy! *Photo Days 2025*, a contemporary photo festival, is in full swing throughout November. Parisian galleries, museums, and even a jewelry school are serving up snaps that’ll make your Instagram jealous—plus, many exhibitions are totally free. If you want classical music with your culture, the Philharmonie de Paris hosts a symphonic concert “Messe en ut,” featuring the Orchestre de chambre de Paris and Chœur Balthasar Neumann at 8:00 PM tonight, guaranteed to elevate your evening.
If you’re craving culture with a twist, head to the Hôtel de Ville for the open-air “Facing Terrorism with Civic Memory” exhibition. It's haunting, reflective, and proof that Paris does street art with heart. Theatre lovers, avant-garde action awaits at the Palais de Tokyo with the performance “Princes and Powers (After Baldwin)” proving modern art in Paris is still delightfully weird.
For families and intrepid explorers, take the little ones to the Grand Palais Immersif for *PLAYGROUND KIDS*, where interactive games meet Mission Martians. Or, if you prefer the outdoors, sneak away to see the newly launched *Printemps Haussmann Christmas window displays*—themed “A Christmas in New York,” inaugurated by none other than Diane Kruger. These windows aren’t just displays, they’re portals to childhood magic—and free for everyone to ogle!
Recent Paris buzz includes a whirlwind of new pop-up restaurants in the Marais and Saint-Germain, with local news heralding seasonal menus heavy on chestnuts, mushrooms, and trophies for inventive pastry chefs. Public transit updates: RATP urges commuters to expect mild delays near Gare Saint-Lazare due to scheduled maintenance—classic Paris, always keeping us nimble.
Looking for must-do activities? You can’t beat an evening stroll down the Champs-Élysées before the Christmas lights switch-on—Paris at night is what twinkle toes were invented for. Or duck into one of the historic covered passages near Grands Boulevards if the wind picks up; these nooks serve vintage charm and pastry perfection. If adventure’s your game, join a spontaneous chess match—the European Corporate Chess Championship kicks off today, drawing brainiacs from across Europe to Asnières-sur-Seine.
Here's an insider tip: On the first Friday of every month, the Louvre opens its doors for free after 6 PM! This means tomorrow, you can see Mona Lisa without dropping a single euro—which in Paris, basically qualifies as a miracle.
Coming up tomorrow, the Pitchfork Music Festival thunderclaps through ten venues, Disney’s Enchanted Christmas lights up Disneyland Paris, and Pride Festival 2025 launches its celebration of LGBTQIA+ culture. So, listeners, plan ahead, pack an extra croissant, and get those dancing shoes ready.
