We had a lovely time here in this wonderful old quaint theatre. We went to the 2300hrs showing, which was great as it meant we had all day sightseeing in Paris. The show was amazing with beautiful dancers and costumes. You have to go here whilst in Paris just once..... Book tickets in advance to avoid disappointment. Lovely atmosphere and... More

We went to Moulin Rouge because it was on our list, We have ticked it off and wont return. It was an entertaining evening with good costumes but I think there are better things to do in Paris for the money. We were originally put on a table of 8 or 10 at the back and because it was flat... More

The Moulin Rouge was a good night in Paris.The meal was fine and we had good seats and good view of the show.The dancing and entertainment was enjoyable,if a little difficult to follow at times. I am not a dance expert and took the show at face value as a night out. However others in our party were more experienced... More

During a romantic weekend in Paris, we had the opportunity to go to the Moulin Rouge for meal and entertainment. After battling through the queue to get in, we were directed to our table right in frint of the stage. Due to the layout of the tables, this meant that my partner had his back to the stage. We were... More

This was the biggest waste of time and a lot of money!!! Dancing was terrible, they were not singing - it was completely C grade. Children's dance concerts are better than this!!! It was a must do in Paris but I would urge people to save the time and money - there is nothing to see here!!! More

It was a most for us, everyone had said so much about this show . We enjoy the dinner and the entertainment while eating, the food was really good, but very limited space. We had to stay in the same place for the show and we can hardly move so we get stiff. The show was fantastic, but hard to... More

It was our seventh time at Paris, and we just had to go, to know what people are talking about. It was not bad, it was funny and entertaining, but there was no "wow" experience. And I will never spend the money at it again. Now we had been there, and seen it, "checked". But I guess that we will... More

This show is one of the best shows, I ever seen in my life, why? because it´s completely unique. Based on the old Burlesque with over 100 artist, excelent dancers and with the must georgoeus and fancy outfits. Very classy, well presented even if there are some nudes(top less) on stage. It´s a little bit pricy but it´s worth it.... More

May be I have heard too much about it, but in my mind I had something different. The singing (yes, I know it is not a singing event) is very mediocre at best, dancing entertaining, but nothing more than that. Champagne is terrible (well I am not a big fan of Brut). Overall - unimpressed for 105 euro per person. More
