Ticket Prices and Discounts

As anywhere, it's best to buy tickets in advance.

Events range in price from about €5 for standing room at the Opéra Bastille to upward of €180 for an elaborate National Ballet production. Most performances, however, are in the €10 to €35 range. Discounts are often available for limited-visibility seats or for students and senior citizens. Movies cost €6.50 to €11.80, but many cinemas have reduced rates for matinees or for people under a certain age (18 or 26, depending on the venue).
