Closed: The Arc de Triomphe is closed on January 1st, May 1st, May 8 (morning), July 14 (morning), November 11 (morning), and December 25.
Peak Season: April - September
Low Season: November - March
The best time to visit the Arc de Triomphe is from April to September. However, this is also when the crowds are the largest. The weather during this period is more pleasant, and the monument is open longer compared to the low season.
On the other hand, visiting the monument during the low season, from November to March, is recommended if you want to avoid crowds and enjoy a more hassle-free visit. The winter season in Paris is beautiful, and you are likely to save money on flights, accommodation, and food during this time.
If you want to witness the beautiful evening view from the Arc de Triomphe rooftop, it's best to visit in the early morning instead, as it can get crowded in the evenings. The shimmering lights of the Champs-Elysées and the Eternal Flame of Remembrance are a visual treat post-sunset. The Arc de Triomphe attracts the most visitors during weekends. To avoid crowds, it is recommended to plan your visit during the weekdays, especially from Tuesday to Thursday, when the Arc is least crowded.
The Arc de Triomphe is open from 10am to 11pm from April to September and from 10am to 10:30pm from October to March.
The Arc de Triomphe is open every day of the week except on January 1st, May 1st, May 8 (morning), July 14 (morning), November 11 (morning), and December 25.
The last access to the monument is 45 minutes before closing time.
The Arc de Triomphe is closed on January 1st, May 1st, May 8 (morning), July 14 (morning), November 11 (morning), and December 25.
