A new year kicks off in Paris and Île-de-France! So, what’s on the agenda in January 2027 for families with kids?

Still, there are plenty of great ideas to enjoy the capital with children of all ages, and events you won’t want to miss in January. Ready? Here we go!
Free museums like the Musée Carnavalet and the Petit Palais remain top choices for introducing children to art and culture. For active kids, indoor play parks are essential, but urban strolls—such as a walk along the banks of the Seine or exploring the covered passages—are perfect ways to discover Paris even when the weather is chilly!
In January, New Year's Eve offers a magical moment with the last end-of-year illuminations on the Champs-Élysées. January also marks the launch of the Télérama Children's Festival, offering free children's film screenings and workshops in several Paris cinemas.
With all these ideas in hand, January 2027 promises exciting family discoveries in the capital. Gear up for outings and enjoy Paris like never before!
