May is a great time to be in Paris. Between the excellent weather and few tourists, you really are at a great advantage if you are traveling to Paris in May.

The sun will be shining as well: this April has been pretty warm, so expect some of the same for May!

Don’t forget, there are a few national holidays in May, where many shops and restaurants will be closed:

• May 1, Labor Day

• May 8, V-E Day

• May 25, Ascension Day (you will find more open on this day than on the other two holidays)

May 19 is your chance to experience a really unique even in Paris: La Nuit des Musees. This night, museums throughout the city will be open late, allowing you to see their art through beautiful lighting effects. There will be talks, concerts, screenings and shows at the various museums throughout Paris.
And the best part? The museums are free that night. Most are free of charge as of 7:30 or 8:00 p.m.
Here’s the short list of participating museums, and their hours:

• The Louvre will be open until 11:45 p.m.
