GREVIN Subscriber

All year round. If you’ve always wanted to see Madonna, Pablo Picasso, Spiderman, French pop star Lorie, Louis Armstrong, Albert Einstein or Louis XIV, go along to the Musée Grévin and say hello to their waxworks... Spread out over six different halls — the “Palais des Mirages” (Hall of Mirrors), “Clichés du XXe siècle” (20th-century photographs), the “Histoire de France”, the “Théâtre du Tout Paris”, the “Paris Grévin Magazine” and the “Collection Grévin” — are life-size waxworks of the stars of showbiz and people in the news, past and present. The collection is updated regularly: French actor Gérard Jugnot and humorist and impersonator Laurent Gerra are the two latest additions. Make it a family trip with the children: they’ll enjoy spotting celebrities and being let into the secret of how the waxworks are made.

Museum

Private

Opened since 1882, the Musée Grévin features new celebrities each year. After six months of renovation works, 300 wax statues – 80 of which new – are now displayed among an assortment of sound-enhanced settings. New: you can get your picture taken with your favourite star. Relive France’s grand history through 50 celebrities from different eras. The visit continues with the legendary “Tout Paris” Theatre and you will be amazed by the Hall of Mirrors which never ceases to impress... since the 1900 Universal Exhibition. At last, thanks to new image and lighting technology, the hall will plunge you into an imaginary world of metamorphosis, half-way between illusion and reality. Also try the combined "Paris Sportif": an unforgettable day at the Stade de France, Roland-Garros and Grévin! Try a guided tour of the Stade de France, now a mythical place where the French football team became World Champions. Follow your visit with a trip behind the scenes of the Roland-Garros Stadium and/or the first multimedia tennis museum, the Tenniseum. To make this visit even more memorable, at Grévin you can be photographed alongside your favourite sports heroes such as Zinédine Zidane, Amélie Mauresmo and Fabien Barthez.
