What are we doing this weekend of April 27 and 28, 2024 in the Paris region? While there's plenty to do in Paris, there's also plenty to do elsewhere in the Ile-de-France region.

What's on the menu this weekend? A whole host of activities, including a plant festival in Yvelines, a colorful race, the water festival, a manga fair in Seine-Saint-Denis, street art in Val-d'Oise, a day of free sports activities in Sartrouville and a trip back in time in the footsteps of Van Gogh!
