Opened by Emperor Napoleon in 1852, the Cirque d'hiver has delighted Parisian audiences for 150 years. Translated as "Winter Circus," the building is constructed like a mini Roman Colosseum, but the exterior has twenty sides wrapping around the oval performance area. With a closed roof, it's a perfect venue for winter concerts, fashion shows, and circuses. Like the poster says: performances every night at 8:00.
