Why You Shouldn’t Miss This

Located in the heart of Paris on the Champs de Elysees, Le Lido serves as an exemplary cabaret and burlesque show that has been delighting local enthusiasts and tourists alike for over six decades. With its incredible assemblage of highly talented and beautiful dancers, singers and many other performers, the Lido never fails to entertain its audience. The likes of Siegfried and Roy, Edith Piaf, Sylvie Vartan, Maurice Chevalier and Eartha Kitt have graced the Lido’s grand stage, which clearly speaks for itself!

The Lido was essentially founded when the Clerico Brothers began importing an array of Las Vegas cabaret shows to Paris with Donn Arden’s help all the way back in 1956. The show has continuously evolved since then while keeping the essence of the performances as fresh as when it first opened. The current and latest show, made by legendary director Franco Dragone, is called ‘Paris Merveilles‘. Franco has drawn inspiration from the city of Paris and the many magical scenes that happen on its streets to give you the show of a lifetime.

The Show

The Lido certainly has a long and rich tradition of exemplary performance. Every Lido show consists of anything between ten to twenty scenes that run for around 1½ hours in total, of which the Bluebell Girls’ performance is undoubtedly the primary attraction of the show.
Many of the other singers, showgirls and performers serve to enhance the overall presentation and make sure to keep it colorful for repeat audiences. You will be blown away by the exotic furs, glamorous fabrics, incredible feather and rhinestone costumes. The show generally opens with a characteristic or thematic scene that sets the mood, tone, and color scheme for the performances to come. There are quick costume-change shows, vaudeville acts like acrobats or magicians, a scene that includes excellent water effects and, of course, the famous number, Merci Beaucoup, to bring the show to a splendid conclusion.
