Paradis Latin
Paradis d'Amour, the new show
The Paradis Latin considers itself the most Parisian of the great cabarets. This calling can be seen in the decoration of the theatre built by Gustave Eiffel, in the incredible world famous French CanCan and in most of the ballets. The famous shows of the Paradis Latin, such as Paris Paradis, Nuit de Paradis, Paradisiac, Champagne, Hello Paradis, Viva Paradis have all remained loyal and reflect the Parisian spirit.
Still, today we tastefully present scenes that are both modern and exciting without undermining this view of Paris. Having premiered to rave reviews, Paradis d'Amour, with its extremely cosmopolitan dance troupe, shimmering costumes, is a veritable hymn to Love and will enthral audiences from around the world.
Night life In Paris
When planning an evening out in Paris, it is more important to decide where to go than what to do. The Champs Élysées and Trocadero areas are full of tourists and overpriced nightspots, but if wishing to impress, may be worth considering.
Pigalle is the seedy sex centre of Paris but home to some good music venues and the Moulin Rouge cabaret, where the cancan is still performed. Montmartre is heaving in summer but the views over Paris from Sacre-Coeur are unbeatable.
Bastille is buzzing with bars and clubs but is a bit too hectic for some. The best area for an evening's café-hopping is the Marais district, (also the centre of the gay scene), closely followed by the increasingly fashionable Oberkampf, which suits a younger crowd.

Discotheque and Night Club
Paris's night clubs tend to be both expensive and exclusive - if you know someone who knows the ropes, you'll have an easier time getting through the door. Many night venues host a specific soiree on a given night of the week, so the party-hearty crowd is no longer faithful to just one club, for information about dates, look out for flyers in bars.
Techno, house, garage and latino are the popular sounds. Bouncers frequently turn potential punters away and many of the smarter clubs are (or claim to be) private. There is no sure way of gaining admission, although being foreign, dressed identically to everyone inside, accompanied by a regular or simply beautiful helps. Admission prices (usually about the Euros 15) often include one free drink. Clubs open at about 2300 and tend not to close until dawn; it is coolest to arrive around 0300, or at least after midnight.

Night transportation
The majority of public transportation stops during the night. Many of the buses stop around 20h and restart again at 6h, and others stop around midnight. As for the métro, the hours vary, but in general the last métro departs from the beginning of the line around 0h30. The first train leaves around 5h30 in the morning.
The hours of the first and the last train are posted in each station.
There exists a night bus, called the noctambus, which runs all night with a departure every hour from 1H30 to 5H30. These buses connect the center of the city, leaving from Chatelet, with the various entrances to the city. The night buses are more expensive than the normal day buses. The Noctambus stops whenever you want, at any point along its route.
