Visit the Gardens of Paris La Défense
Paris La Défense invites you to join a 90-minute guided tour in a small group of 20 people. Meet at the base of La Grande Arche at the time slot you selected when you registered, and set off to explore the gardens of the business district! Start by exploring the Jardins de l’Arche, then the Rose de Cherbourg. Take a break at the Parc construction site to learn more about the developments in this iconic space in La Défense, and finish your tour in Diderot Park. As a special bonus, you’ll leave with a packet of Prairie Fleurie seeds!
To enter, you must register online; winners will be selected at random.
A European event
Created and conceived by the French Ministry of Culture, this event has gained momentum throughout Europe. Following a 2024 edition focused on “the five senses in the garden,” the 2026 edition will highlight the theme of “sight.”
This annual event allows many professionals who work daily in these gardens to share their passion and expertise. Across France and Europe, numerous workshops, conferences, demonstrations, exhibitions, performances, and more are organized over the course of a weekend. Open to everyone, this is a unique opportunity to learn more about the maintenance of the parks and gardens we enjoy every day and to discover all the secrets of these green spaces.
