This summer, France will host the world’s biggest sporting event. All the teams at Air France have been preparing for this event for many months, with the company today unveiling its special programme of events available to everyone this summer in the centre of Paris.

This is a unique opportunity for visitors and sports fans from around the world to explore the world of the airline and discover its unique travel experience, elegantly promoting the French lifestyle.

An Air France restaurant at the Palais de Tokyo

From 27 July to 11 August 2024, Air France is inviting everyone to explore its world within the walls of the Palais de Tokyo, a famous Parisian cultural institution located close to the sites hosting many sporting events, such as the Grand Palais Ephémère, the Eiffel Tower and the esplanade des Invalides. In between two competitions or during a visit to the French capital, visitors of all ages will be able to access the site free of charge and wander at their own pace and convenience around an area spanning over 850 sq. m dedicated to the company.

The focal point will be the Air France restaurant, which will open its doors specially for the occasion. With a seating capacity of 80 places, the restaurant will offer an original gastronomic experience, “just like on board”. This pop-up restaurant will offer the same culinary delights as those usually served exclusively on board Air France’s long-haul Business cabin.

Triple Michelin-starred French chef Arnaud Lallement will sign the delectable dishes on the restaurant’s à la carte menu. With a selection of meat, poultry, fish or vegetarian options, the dishes on the restaurant menu in July will be renewed in August. The menu will feature desserts signed by Nina Métayer, recently voted World Pastry Chef in 2024 by the World’s 50 Best Restaurants Awards. A selection of wines, champagnes and a wide choice of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks will also be on offer. With an appetizer, starter, main dish, a cheese selection and dessert, each “French-style” meal will be served in tableware specially created for Air France by designer Jean-Marie Massaud, in a setting similar to that on board the plane, integrating the airline’s Business meal tray.
