 The famous building itself... by Colzy
If you are on a limited budget like me then you may have to be content to admire the icon from outside and not fork out something like 150 Euro per person for a dinner and a show. Big ouch for me.
I caught the metro there and arrived at 10:30pm and the place was sooooooo busy.... buses, people......a hive of activity. The place looked amazing lit up at night though and staring at the famous windmill the words 'Truth, Freedom, Beauty and Love' really do swim around in your head. I'm a but emotive I'm afraid and although I spent a grand total of maybe 15 minutes there it was definitely worth the trip. Leave a Comment

The world's famous cabaret...... stunning & extravagant cancan shows! A must-see....at least once in your life. The setting of Ewan McG & Nicole K.'s blockbuster movie of the same title....though looks more fabulous in the movie, I guess it has sumthin' to do with Satine's (NK) charm... no, I guess it's the spectacular set of the movie.
It has been a venue of some of the world's great artists like Liza M., Frank S., Elton J. among others, and the most gorgeous dancers in fabulous costumes and, of course, the lesser or minimum - to bare costumes... not really.

 Moulin Rouge Windmill by
Night by bobyn
Show with Dinner (with choice of three menu options):
French Cancan 135 euro, Toulouse-Lautrec 150 euro, & Belle Epoque 165 euro.
Half bottle of champagne included in price.
Show alone:
9pm @ 95 euro & 11pm @ 85 euro
...so its expensive if you are not too sure about whether you would like to attend or not. The atmosphere is great though, and the old touch is still there. I enjoyed the Moulin Rouge film (of 2000) even moreso after being there. They kept many of the facts of decoration, layout as fact.
Seeing the building and windmill outside lit up at night time is quite a site also. Appeared smaller that I had imagine it to be, but wow, coooool. The picture to the left was taken at this time.
Thumbs Up from me. Really worth the trip :)
The show is great, and the builiding was a must see for me :)
And while you are there ....while brighter ....hit Sacre Couer on top of Mont Marte Hill nearby, literally around the corner, and up a bit of a ..well ..ok.. a hill, but it is walkable. There are fairly reasonable hotels for accomodation closeby - quite reasonable in fact for Paris. I have been advised, and think its best to avoid the ones on the main Moulin Rouge street (please correct me if I am wrong)...there are nice tourist hotels up towards the hill.
For this particular photo of mine, I'd appreciate it if you let me know, and/or acknowledge usage of same. Leave a Comment Address: 82, Boulevard de Clichy, 75018 Paris, France.

 Moulin Rouge by day by easyoar
The Moulin Rouge has recently been immortalised in a Hollywood film, and it has been made famous for the racey and rather saucy routines that went on inside.

I'll admit I was hesitant - 99 Euros (US$133) for a show is pricey for me. But my friends wanted to go and I thought, what the heck? How often do I get to Paris?
From the time we arrived at the Moulin Rouge, with everyone dressed up - it just FELT festive. We were seated at the world's smallest table, crammed up against other tiny tables, and I remember thinking "I hope this goes by quickly". Then the house lights went down, the stage lights came on, the band started playing, and from that moment on it was sheer magic! There was the initial tee heeing about the girls being topless, but after about 5 minutes you are so caught up in the music, and the dancing, and the costumes that you forget about that aspect.
And this show had it all - lovely showgirls, beautiful costumes and musical numbers, a comedian, a virgin sacrifice into a vat filled with water and snakes (I'm not kidding!), acrobats, and a duo who balanced each other with such grace and strength that they got their own standing ovation!
For all my initial hesitation, I must say that I THOROUGHLY enjoyed this show and thought it was worth every penny. Eat a cheap meal somewhere, and instead spend the money you saved at the Moulin Rouge!

But of course the Moulin Rouge is highlighting the current show of shows. A troupe of international artists with spectacular presentation of music and dance with those sparkling rhinestones and sequins. Can you imagine how spectacular their show will be with those uniquely designed and at least a thousand colourful costumes?

You will definitely be looking for gift items to be brought home. Thirty meters from the Moulin Rouge is the Gift Shop which is open during the day from 10:00AM to 7:00PM from Tuesday to Saturday.

 Moulin Rouge at Night by easyoar
The moulin rouge has recently been immortalised by Nicole Kidman and others in a Hollywood musical. The club is famous around the world for the dancers and their skimpy costumes.

Even though the price can be steep, it is worth going there one time to get the feel for what it is all about. A long time ago, I seem to recall somewhere over $100 to see a show; must be more now. The area that the building is located has always felt dirty to me and a bit unsafe, especially at night. There can be some street people that you do not want to talk about tourism with there.
The prices will no be for the timid. For some shows, it is now reaching $250 US, before that cheap denomination gets cheaper. About 10 years ago it still was $120-150 for shows Directions: It is in the busy district of town-and a bit "sleasy" I thought
