A giant ball pit atop the Montparnasse Tower in Paris

The Montparnasse Tower Panoramic Observation Deck keeps innovating. After proposing us a skating track, trampolines and an ice skating rink, it’s now a giant ball pit expecting us from April 13 to May 1, 2018, for Spring break.

We still remember the famous ball pit by Colette, that we loved so much. It’s an as extraordinary pit that awaits us this time on the Montparnasse Tower rooftop. We can already see ourselves floating on a sea of balls, cuddled up in a colorful buoy while gazing at the French capital.

• Good plans of the week from March 20 to 26, 2023 in Paris: free or cheap outings
• Free Museums and Monuments to do in Paris and Ile de France, good plans

For this temporary installation, not less than 100,000 balls are expected to create this uncommon pit. So that you can drown in it (but without the risk of course).

In short, the famous rooftop of the Montparnasse Tower and its 360° view keeps surprising us. For two weeks, the place turns into a real open-air playground for kids and regressive adults. How about letting off the steam, jumping, plunging and lazing around? Come along and live out this very original and recreative experience. Guaranteed giggles!

This pit is open every day from April 13 to May 1, 2018. Covering 40 sqm, it will be entirely covered with a safety net. Please note the event is free and available to all, you only have to pay the admission fee to the Montparnasse Tower Panoramic Observation Deck that remains at the usual rate.
