The Paris Autumn Festival is a multidisciplinary, nomadic event dedicated to contemporary creation. From September to December, it works with a broad network of theatres, museums, art centres and concert halls.

A festival without a single venue

Its presence in more than sixty Paris and Île-de-France institutions creates routes between venues and gives artists space to present multiple works and extended portraits.

International contemporary creation

Theatre, dance, music, performance, cinema and visual arts form a programme in which new commissions and premieres are central.

2026 edition

The 55th edition begins on 11 September and continues through December 2026, with close to one hundred artistic events.
