An extraordinary set-up worthy of Cannes!

While one of the world's biggest film events is taking place in Cannes,

Parisians and tourists will also be able to enjoy an extraordinary movie

experience.

For this 3rd edition of Un Dimanche au Cinema, a unique outdoor cinema will be

set up allowing visitors to enjoy this exceptional event: a giant 144m[2]

screen installed in front of the Arc de Triomphe, along with a powerful sound

system and more than 1,700 deckchairs in a picture postcard setting. This is a

real technical feat that needs to be achieved in record time, as the event will

only be held on a single evening, 22 May, 2022.

For the Comite Champs-Elysees, this event contributes to the international

reputation of this emblematic thoroughfare, which has been at a standstill for

two years due to the health crisis.

A project initiated by the Comite Champs-Elysees

For Marc-Antoine Jamet, Chair of the Champs-Elysees Committee:

"The Champs-Elysees is a vibrant and lively avenue, a wonderful backdrop that

Paris offers to walkers, visitors and lovers of the capital from all over the

world, a place to meet and get together, a place like nowhere else. After some

difficult years, we needed to find a way for people to reconnect with this

exceptional atmosphere, with the carefree spirit and the joie de vivre it

inspires. It was necessary to breathe life into it again. Attending the most

extraordinary film night on the most beautiful avenue in the world, between an

Egyptian obelisk and a Napoleonic arch, an avenue where the Bastille Day parade

takes place, where the yellow jerseys are crowned, is not exactly a trivial

matter. To be able to sing and cry, to marvel or be moved, to laugh or to be

sad and to admire, in the open air, in the midst of two thousand spectators who

are in communion with you is no mundane event. We would like to invite you to

this unique event on Sunday 22 May! Avenue des Champs-Elysees is an avenue of

culture and cinema,and so this evening event is also a way of reminding all

Parisians that films can be enjoyed on the big screen and that 5 multi-screen

cinemas on the avenue offer them an ambitious and popular programme all year

round. We are not inviting you to the Champs-Elysees. It is your home! In the

cinema!"

The event is produced by ubi bene.

Haagen-Dazs

the Champs-Elysees! The Haagen-Dazs brand, present in many cinemas, could not

miss this event. We are therefore delighted to be a partner in this new

"Enjoying a Haagen-Dazs ice cream is always a special moment. Tasting it on the

most beautiful avenue in the world makes it an extraordinary experience."

Karen Brossard, Marketing Director General Mills France

TCM Cinema

"Watching an open-air movie on the big screen on the most beautiful avenue in

the world is just amazing. TCM Cinema is proud to participate for the first

time in this 2022 edition! It reflects our desire / DNA to accompany, inspire

and thrill fans of American cinema"
