Aperitif Dictation in Paris: Spelling Practice and Drinks in the 14th Arrondissement

Perfecting your spelling while sharing a drink: that’s the concept behind the apéro-dictée hosted on Tuesday, October 20, 2026 at 7 p.m., at 2 Rue Lacaze in Paris’s 14th arrondissement. The Association des commerçants et artisans de l’avenue du Général Leclerc, ACAGL14, is putting on this evening open to everyone, with a €10 entry fee.

The texts and the animation are entrusted to Sandrine Campese, a longtime neighborhood resident and a specialist in the French language and spelling. The event thus pairs a writing exercise with a moment of exchange among participants, in a setting the association describes as playful.

No need to bring your pencil case: notebooks and pens are provided. The ticket also includes drinks and snacks. The poster carries the colors of ACAGL14 and CFA Cerfal Campus Montsouris.
