Upcoming: Rendez-vous aux Jardins: Open Gardens Weekend in Paris and Île-de-France




France's national open-gardens weekend, run by the Ministry of Culture. Public parks, private estates and botanical gardens open their gates, some of them only for this weekend. Families find guided tours, workshops, walks and the odd concert among the flower beds. The 2027 theme is lawns, meadows and grasslands. It suits kids who like to look closely at plants and bugs, less so ones who need a playground.
More family picks, Friday to Sunday.
