On Friday, November 28, 2025, the Petit Palais will be transformed into a huge dance floor to host "Chez Barbara," an exceptional evening created by Barbara Butch in collaboration with HBO Max. Combining art, music, and freedom, this unique experience celebrates collective joy and queer spirit in one of Paris's most iconic museums.

Open to all, Chez Barbara is aimed at lovers of partying, culture, and freedom. The LGBTQIA+ community, electronic music enthusiasts, and those curious to discover an immersive experience in the heart of a historic monument will find their place here. Children and those sensitive to loud noise or crowds are less likely to enjoy this event.

In the 1900 gallery of the Petit Palais, visitors will discover a unique setting where heritage architecture blends with the visual worlds of HBO's cult series. The event combines artistic performance and inclusive celebration in an atmosphere of kindness, freedom, and creativity.

Barbara Butch will be joined by artists Habibi Sly and Camille Doe for an exclusive set, transforming the museum into a giant dance floor. The DJ will unveil an exclusive French version of Trixie Mattel's queer hit, produced especially for HBO Max.
