Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris is honoured to announce its patronage of the Paris Opera for the 2026/2027 season. Through this commitment, the Palace reaffirms its longstanding support for artistic creation while contributing to the enduring influence of one of France's most celebrated cultural institutions.

More than a philanthropic initiative, this partnership embodies a meaningful dialogue between two iconic institutions united by a shared dedication to excellence, transmission, craftsmanship and emotion. Together, they celebrate the talents and artistic traditions that enrich Paris's cultural landscape and inspire audiences from around the world.

Throughout the 2026/2027 season, selected guests of Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris will enjoy reserved seating and privileged opportunities to experience the Paris Opera from a unique perspective, offering exceptional access to an institution at the very heart of Parisian cultural life.

In turn, Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris will welcome members of the Paris Opera community for stays and special occasions, providing a setting where artists, creators and professionals can gather, exchange ideas and continue to nurture artistic expression.

This spirit of reciprocity resonates naturally between two institutions driven by the same pursuit of beauty, excellence and emotion. Behind the grandeur of every performance, much like behind the seamless experience of a stay at George V, lies the dedication of countless talented individuals whose expertise transforms vision into reality and creates unforgettable moments. On one side are singers, musicians, dancers, artisans and technicians whose collective talents bring each production to life. On the other are chefs, sommeliers, florists, artisans and hospitality professionals who shape every guest experience. In both worlds, excellence is a collective achievement, where every detail matters and every gesture reflects extraordinary precision, passion and savoir-faire.

"For nearly a century, George V has cultivated a profound connection with the worlds of art and culture, which have deeply influenced our vision of hospitality. We believe that craftsmanship, creativity and the pursuit of excellence are at the heart of creating meaningful and memorable experiences," says Thibaut Drege, General Manager of Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris. "As a Parisian Palace, we are equally committed to celebrating the rich cultural life of our city and helping to showcase what makes Paris so uniquely inspiring. Our patronage of the Paris Opera is a natural extension of this commitment, supporting artistic excellence while creating new connections between our guests, artists and one of the world's most vibrant cultural capitals."

For George V, this patronage forms part of a broader story in which art, in all its forms, occupies a central place within the identity of the Palace. For nearly a century, artistic expression has served as a defining thread woven throughout the experience of the hotel.

Art is present from the moment guests arrive, through an exceptional collection of period furnishings, master paintings, sculptures and decorative objets d'art displayed throughout the rooms, suites and public spaces, transforming the Palace into a living showcase of creativity, heritage and craftsmanship.

Yet at George V, art is not only preserved, it is continually reimagined. For more than 25 years, floral artistry has become one of its most distinctive expressions through the spectacular creations of Artistic Director Jeff Leatham, whose visionary installations transform flowers, colour and scale into a powerful artistic language that evolves throughout the seasons.

The same commitment to creativity extends naturally into gastronomy, where cuisine, wine, artistic presentation and exceptional ingredients come together across the Palace's acclaimed restaurants to celebrate the French art de vivre and the pursuit of culinary excellence.

Deeply embedded within the identity of the hotel, this relationship with the arts has progressively expanded beyond its walls. Through partnerships including its engagement alongside Art Basel Paris, Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris has reaffirmed its commitment to supporting contemporary creation and fostering meaningful dialogue between hospitality and artistic expression.

Today, through its patronage of the Paris Opera, Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris opens a new chapter in this ongoing story, extending its commitment to the performing arts and celebrating the enduring power of music, dance and artistic creation.
