Palais Garnier: where history meets living art

From the moment you enter, the show begins. The sweeping marble grand staircase invites you to ascend like a character in an old-world opera. Gilded walls shimmer, crystal chandeliers sparkle, and salons open onto balconies that feel straight out
of a dream. At the heart of the auditorium, all eyes are drawn to Marc Chagall’s ceiling, painted in 1964 — a bold swirl of colors floating above the classic architecture. It captures the very essence of the place: a perfect harmony between heritage and creativity, tradition and innovation.

A home for artists and
an escape into beauty

The Palais Garnier is also the historic home of the Paris ballet. Behind the scenes, dancers rehearse, musicians warm up, costumes take shape. To attend a performance here is to experience architecture not just visually, but emotionally
— through movement and music. Even without a ticket, the building enchants. Stroll through its galleries, admire a sculpture, a fresco, a detail in the light. Every corner tells a story, every pause becomes poetry.
