Question

Hi we are going to the Lido show in Paris - what is the cost and how was the show?

Answer 1

Save your money.

Its an expensive Las Vegas type show designed for tourists.

The show will cost you 140 euros a person for dinner and bare breasted girls walking around in absurd costumes while someone warbles a tune.

There is nothing sophisticated, cosmopolitan, or glamorous about it. It is pure low brow, impress the yokels from the provinces, titillate the visiting fireman  trash.

If you would like a delightful and cultured evening with entertainment then I suggest the Bel Canto. This is a lovely restaurant in which the staff are all Opera singers and music students. Its located at 72, quai Hotel de Ville. Check out their website: http://www.lebelcanto.com/?langue=en

Answer 2

It is one of the most glamorous and brillant shows in Europe, and could easily outdo some Vegas shows. However be prepared to spend at least one or 2 bottles of medium quality champagne 150 to 250 Eur and some little extra frills. One cannot get rid of the impression that there is definitely a tourist trap aspect to the whole operation. All credit cards accepted. Enjoy!
