From April 18 to May 4, 2026, children in Île-de-France are on vacation: it’s the perfect excuse to head to the iconic Château de Versailles and explore the program on offer during these two school-free weeks.

During the Easter holidays 2026, April 18 to May 4, we take the opportunity to discover or rediscover some of the most famous monuments in Paris and Île-de-France, which are offering special programming for the occasion. From the Louvre Museum to France Miniature, via the Musée des Plans-Reliefs or the Museum d'Histoire naturelle, it's two weeks of exploration with the kids!

On the Versailles side, head to the city’s famous château to enjoy the program for these Easter 2026 holidays with a wealth of workshops and activities on offer. Three times a week, guided sessions will explore 1972, Amerindian allies at the court of Louis XV, and there will also be workshops to craft a diplomatic gift in the style of a king or a Native American chief. Philosopher-performers will also be on site to tell visiting families how relations between the French and Amerindians were built in days gone by.
