Salon de la Photo: This weekend sees the first important photography event of the season, a large-scale exhibition at the Paris Expo in the Porte de Versailles. Divided between art and technology, it covers everything the photography fan could want or need. Clickthis link for a free entrance pass!

Animal Expo: Another exhibition, but this time a lot more kitsch! Held at the Parc Floral – always worth a visit at weekends – it is celebrating its 20th edition in the company of over 20,000 animals. So what makes it kitsch? The ‘best of breed’ cat show is a riot of carefully groomed moggies, but for the non-cat lovers you’ll also be able to see skating and singing dogs!
