Paris Plages 2025

Looking for a summer getaway without leaving the city?
From July 5 to August 31, 2025, Paris Plages returns to transform the banks of the Seine into vibrant summer oases. Enjoy this iconic event while staying at the Hôtel du Jeu de Paume, ideally located on the Île Saint-Louis, just steps from the lively quays.

First launched in 2002, Paris Plages has become a beloved summer tradition in Paris. Every year, the Seine riverbanks come alive with pop-up beaches, free activities for all ages, and a festive, relaxed atmosphere.

This year, two main locations will host the events:

Rives de Seine (Central Paris)

Just a few minutes’ walk from the hotel, the riverside stretch between Pont des Arts and Pont de Sully is lined with deckchairs, parasols, palm trees, and cooling mist stations. Here you’ll find:

• Relaxation areas with loungers for reading, sunbathing, or simply unwinding

• Games and entertainment like foosball, zip lines, and water play zones

• Sports activities such as beach volleyball, yoga, and tai chi

• Free concerts and performances in the evenings

• Food trucks and refreshment stands where you can enjoy an ice cream or a fresh juice with views of the Seine

Bassin de la Villette (19th arrondissement)

A more family-friendly and festive site, this area offers:

• A free water sports center with paddleboarding, kayaking, and pedal boats

• Floating swimming pools installed right on the canal

• Cultural events like open-air cinema, children's workshops, and a pop-up library

• Open-air dance venues (guinguettes) to enjoy music and long summer evenings

Located on the picturesque Île Saint-Louis, the Hôtel du Jeu de Paume is a charming 4-star hotel, perfect for a summer stay in Paris. By choosing our hotel, you’ll enjoy direct access to the vibrant Paris Plages quays—just a 5-minute walk away—while returning to the peace and elegance of a historic, hidden gem in the heart of the city.
