FÊTE DES VENDANGES DE MONTMARTRE

For the 91st edition of the Fête des Vendanges de Montmartre 2024, the 18th arrondissement is opening up to the theme of the imaginary, bringing with it the dream, the unusual, the unprecedented, expanding the space of the possible.

Aspiring to a better world, transforming, giving oneself the strength to invent, accessing the marvellous, the fantastic, creating images, sounds, ideas and thus giving space to inventive, dreamlike, funny artistic forms where street shows, films, street art, unusual concerts, poetry or song mingle…

For 5 days, the eight districts of the 18th arrondissement of Paris will be cultivating their imaginations, dreaming, creating, experimenting and reinventing themselves. From sustainable cities to utopias, science fiction and fantasy, the Fête des Vendanges de Montmartre is set to be an event rich in discovery and inventiveness.

With a wide range of cultural, artistic, culinary, sporting and always festive events on offer, the imagination is taking over the whole arrondissement.

We wish everyone « endless dreams and the furious desire to make some of them come true ».
