Where is ‘Emily in Paris’ filmed? New season filming locations revealed

The blend of old and new continues with visits to some of the city’s grand attractions interspersed with some of its most modern. Emily streams herself at the Sacré-Coeur, the opulent basilica in Montmartre, in Episode 4 and then returns in Episode 9. This penultimate episode is a mini-tour, with Gabriel and Camille visiting the Musée d’Orsay, the great museum housed in a former railway station on rue de Lille, as well as Le Mur des Je t’aime (The I Love You Wall) in Square Jehan Rictus in Montmartre, a fresco of enamelled lava created by artist Claire Kito and calligraphist Fédéric Baron. Episode 9 also takes us back to one of Season 1’s big locations, the Opéra Garnier, with Sylvie.

For Episode 2’s retrospective for designer Pierre Cadault, we’re in the Musée des Arts Decoratifs in the Pavilion de Marsan, a branch of the Louvre that specialises in everything domestic from furniture and interior design to toys. In classic contrast, Mindy is in residence in a classic cabaret club, dubbed La Trompette Bleue but filmed at La Nouvelle Eve, a historic venue on rue Pierre Fontaine in Montmartre. Then, in Episode 7, Emily and Gabriel enter a new dimension with a spontaneous visit to Pop Air, a highly immersive experience involving inflatables hosted by La Grande Halle de la Villette, in the north-east of the city.

While Season 2 took Emily on an extended visit to the Riviera, this season’s trips out of the city are briefer. There’s Episode 6’s sojourn in Provence, and then in Episode 9 Emily and Alfie enjoy a balloon ride, filmed in the Loire valley with the medieval turrets of the Château de Montpoupon in Céré-la-Ronde visible behind them. Then, in the final episode of the season, the gang do leave Paris for the season’s cliffhanger ending, for a party at Camille’s family home, supposedly in the Champagne region. Production actually took place at Le Château de Sonnay outside Tours once again, a country estate about 175 miles southwest of Paris. Here, the series comes to a dramatic head – with plenty for fans to look forward to in the following season.

Where is Emily in Paris Season 2 filmed?

Season 2 began with Emily after her contract was rather grudgingly extended, preparing for new adventures in Paris while avoiding her best friend Camille. Showrunner Darren Star, meanwhile, assured us that the show would push beyond the clichés that got up the noses of some viewers the first time around. He told Oprah Daily, “She’s going to be more of a part of the fabric of the world she’s living in, more of a resident of the city.” And, while the revered Le Monde newspaper reported that locals were growing irritated with filming (headline: “They think they’ve bought the neighbourhood”), there were indeed locations galore.
