The event on Â鶹APP’s Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es is open to the public, but only 4,000 people will be granted access to the massive picnic.<\/p>\n

It’s one of the world’s most famous – and well-traveled – streets, and now the Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es is preparing to welcome delighted visitors for an entirely new event.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, May 26, the Â鶹APPian avenue will be transformed into a massive picnic area, accommodating 4,000 residents of the French capital as well as tourists.<\/p>\n

The Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es committee created the event in collaboration with LG Electronics France, and lucky attendees will be able to gather around a giant, traditional red and white chequered picnic rug.<\/p>\n

Each attendee will receive a free picnic basket filled to the brim by restaurateurs from the iconic Avenue eateries.<\/p>\n

There is one catch: tickets to the event will be awarded through a ballot system, so not everyone will be able to attend the grand picnic.<\/p>\n

This is how the massive Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es picnic will work<\/h4>\n

The car-free picnic area, which stretches from the Arc de Triomphe to the intersection of Avenue George V at the other end of the Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es, will be unrecognizable from its usual form as a bustling, traffic-clogged street.<\/p>\n

The road will be divided into nine distinct zones, each featuring a different French delicacy and exciting outdoor games.<\/p>\n

The 216-metre-long gingham picnic rug, which will stretch from rue Ars\u00e8ne Houssaye to Avenue George V, is expected to be a sight to behold.<\/p>\n

Each square on the massive red-and-white checkered blanket can seat up to six people. The organizers have dubbed them “lucky Epicureans”<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Guests who win a spot on the ballot will be able to attend one of two sittings, either at 12.00 or 2.00 pm.<\/p>\n

Given that the picnic will take place on a 4,212-square-meter area, it is likely that it will be recognized by Guinness World Records as the largest ever held.<\/p>\n

Here’s how to apply for the opportunity to picnic on the Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es<\/h4>\n

The picnic provides a rare opportunity to see the avenue transformed. The road has previously hosted a large cinema, but this is the first time a food-related event will be held there.<\/p>\n

However, with only 4,000 tickets available, many keen foodies will be disappointed. If you want to throw your hat in the ring, act quickly.<\/p>\n

Potential attendees must apply for tickets on the official Â鶹APP City Hall website here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Registration is open to everyone, but minors must be accompanied by an adult.<\/p>\n

Up to six people from the same family or group can enter the ballot for the chance to picnic together. All entries will be entered into a prize draw, and those who win a spot on the Â鶹APPienne picnic blanket will be notified in May.<\/p>\n
