Paris Pride March: Metro and Bus Disruptions on Saturday
The Marche des Fiertés (Pride March) in Paris on Saturday, October 3, will cause significant public transport disruptions, with bus lines 27 and 57 affected and metro lines 1, 5, 7, and 10 experiencing slowdowns. Bus line 27 will see stops between Feuillantines and Patay-Tolbiac unserved from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., with diversions near Oudiné and Berthollet-Vauquelin. Bus line 57 will face major delays and route limitations from 7:30 a.m. to 10:30 p.m., particularly around Gare d'Austerlitz and Bastille. The event, postponed from June 27 due to a heatwave, runs from 1 p.m. at Place d'Italie to 10 p.m. at Place de la Bastille. Authorities recommend walking or cycling through the parade zone to avoid intermittent metro station closures.
