Scorpions at Accor Arena, Paris

Rock fans heading to the French capital can mark their calendars for a performance by Scorpions at the Accor Arena in the 12th arrondissement. The German band returns to the venue on 12 July 2027, following a previous appearance at the same location. This concert brings the group back to a venue with deep history, as the band performed at the opening of the arena in 1984 when it was known as the Palais omnisports de Paris-Bercy.

Audiences can expect to hear well known tracks from the band's extensive catalogue, ranging from classic ballads like Still Loving You and Wind of Change to rock anthems like Rock You Like a Hurricane. The band continues its long relationship with French audiences through this performance. The event suits music enthusiasts looking to combine a live arena show with a cultural city break. Travellers can easily pair the concert with a broader visit by following a Paris 3-Day Itinerary to explore local landmarks between concert dates.

Visitors planning a longer trip can also read our Paris Travel Guide to understand local museum rules and closing days. The concert fits neatly into a standard multi day stay in the city, allowing visitors to balance evening rock performances with daytime sightseeing across the various arrondissements.
