La Cité de la Musique provides authentic analog photochemical photo booth sessions in Paris, Île-de-France, France, preserving classic analog darkroom chemistry. Foto Automat created this vintage photo booth in March 2016 for the exposition of Seydou Keïta at Le Grand Palais. This vintage photo booth is a little special because there is a window behind the seat inside the booth. This allows for different fabrics, canvases, etc. to be placed behind you, which means the photo booth is constantly changing. Then in 2018, this photo booth moved to La Cité de la Musique – Philharmonie de Paris, for an exposition called 'Doisneau et la Musique.' You can still find it there. This is a chemical/analog film photo booth.

How much is a strip at La Cité de la Musique, and can I pay by card?
3€ for a strip. Cash only — bring coins or small notes.
Is La Cité de la Musique a real film photo booth or a digital one?
Real film. The strip is developed with real photo chemistry inside the machine, so give it a few minutes to drop.
Do I need to book, or can I just walk up to La Cité de la Musique?
Just walk up. It's a coin-op booth, not a hire service — no booking, no attendant. If the venue is open, the booth is on.
How many photos do you get at La Cité de la Musique, and how long does it take?
One strip of four shots for 3€. The machine takes the four in quick succession, then develops the strip on the spot — usually three to five minutes before it drops into the slot.
What time can I use the booth at La Cité de la Musique?
We don't have the hours yet. It's inside the venue, so go during their normal opening times, and check ahead if you're travelling far.
How do I get to La Cité de la Musique?
It's at 221 Avenue Jean Jaurès, Paris, Île-de-France. Pop the address into your maps app for directions.
Can I get into La Cité de la Musique with a wheelchair or a pram?
We haven't checked access at this venue. Classic booths have a fixed bench and a curtain, so the booth itself is a tight fit; the venue's own access is the thing to ask them about.
