What are we doing this weekend of Saturday, September 26 and Sunday, September 27, 2026 in the Île-de-France region? While there are plenty of outings in Paris, the options are just as plentiful across the rest of Île-de-France. Whether in the Yvelines, the Val-de-Marne, the Seine-Saint-Denis, the Val-d’Oise, the Seine-et-Marne, the Essonne or the Hauts-de-Seine, each department goes all out to give you a weekend full of activities that will delight the young and the not-so-young alike.
A chance to get away from it all for a few hours, not far from Paris, and discover places that are easily accessible by metro, RER, bus or Transilien. Walking tours, exhibitions, festivals, shows and cinema... the possibilities are endless.
On the menu this weekend? Halloween returns to Disneyland Paris, the Chatou Fair, a padel festival, a charity run, or an international lumberjack competition!
