Paris experiences a continental climate, with steamy summers and snow-clad winters. Average temperatures range from 25 degrees Celsius in summer to 3 degrees Celsius in winter. Moderate rain falls throughout the year. The best time to visit Paris is during summer (June to August) when the weather is glorious and the city bristles with that fabled joie de vivre. However, this is peak season, so rates soar and crowds are dense. Spring (March to June) is the ‘other’ best time to go. Gentle temperatures caress the city and the streets bustle with café culture and street performers. Notable events include: European Museums Night (May), Fête de la Musique (June), Tour de France (July), Bastille Day (July) and Paris Fashion Week (September). For cheap flights to Paris, the best time to visit is during winter (end-December to March).
