Cabarets and dinner shows in Paris
A Paris cabaret is a whole evening rather than a show: you arrive for dinner or a glass of champagne, the revue starts late and plays every night of the week, often twice. Among the upcoming dates in our catalogue, the houses that come back most often are the Moulin Rouge, the Crazy Horse, the Paradis Latin and La Nouvelle Ève in Montmartre, joined by smaller rooms where the dinner show takes the form of an opera recital, a burlesque revue or a neighbourhood cabaret.
These houses sell packages, not seats: show only with a drink, dinner then revue, festive menus or front-row tables, and each package has its own price. The same evening therefore exists in several versions; our listing shows the cheapest with the word “from”, the others being visible at the seller. The big revues run all year and sell out Friday and Saturday nights weeks ahead, especially in December; the smaller rooms can be booked a few days out.
This page gathers the cabarets, revues and dinner shows announced in Paris, ranked by popularity, each listing carrying the venue, the next showtime, the cheapest package and a link to the booking page. Prices range from a few tens of euros for a show with a drink in an intimate room to several hundred for dinner and a revue in a grand house. Visitors make up a large part of the audience: most revues can be followed without a word of French.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a cabaret and a dinner show?
The cabaret is the house and its revue; the dinner show is the package where you eat on site before or during the show. The big revues offer both: show only with a glass of champagne, or dinner followed by the revue. Each listing shows the packages available at the seller.
Do I need to book a Paris cabaret in advance?
For a big revue, yes: Friday and Saturday nights go weeks ahead, more so in December. On weeknights and outside peak season, booking a few days out is usually enough. Smaller dinner-show rooms can be booked at the last minute.
How much does a cabaret night cost in Paris?
It depends on the package. A show with a drink in an intimate room sits in the tens of euros; dinner followed by a revue in a grand house runs well over a hundred. The price on each listing is the cheapest package found at the seller.
Can I follow a revue without speaking French?
Yes. The big cabaret revues are visual and musical, with very little spoken text, and the audience is international. Dinner shows built on words (a recital, comedy) are flagged as such on the listing.
