It is hard to say which event will be the highlight in Paris this summer. Some would say the Taylor Swift concerts, while others might say the AC/DC concert. But, even more, people would probably say that the highlight of the year is the event that starts on July 24 and ends two days before the AC/DC concert that will be held on August 13, the Summer Olympics. You don’t need to pick one event or another, you can come to enjoy the Summer Olympics and then stay a few more days to be there at the last AC∕DC concert in Europe in 2024.
The event is arranged at Hippodrome de Longchamp, a popular venue for horse races, and of course, gigantic concerts. It has been used for several music festivals, and the Rolling Stones has performed here several times. Now it is time for the legends from AC/DC to play at the venue. Would you like to be there in the audience? It is possible to buy tickets for the events at the online marketplace VIagogo, so if you are interested, use the link below.

Are there any other events in Paris in August?
One might think that it will be quiet once the Summer Olympics come to an end, but there are always things happening in Paris. There are fantastic permanent and temporary exhibitions in museums such as the Louvre and Orsay, and a trip on the River Seine is always magnificent (but especially in the evening).
