Over the years, this double role has attracted well-established and influential members from a variety of callings: business, politics, the media, diplomacy, and the arts.

Most of the Club’s members are U.S. citizens, some of them long-time residents, while others are professionals on short-term assignments. The rest are mostly Europeans who seek to preserve business and social contacts made either during visits to the U.S. or through trans-Atlantic professional and social relationships.

This mixture of nationalities and personalities has forged the Club’s reputation as an ideal forum for Franco-American dialogue by the prominent speakers featured at its regular luncheons at the prestigious Cercle de l’Union Interalliée and other locations of note.

The Club, however, is not only a forum for serious dialogue!  Our Happy Hours, annual Thanksgiving Gala Dinner, Fourth of July, and Holiday parties are fun and festive occasions.
The Club also offers a wide range of other events such as: private guided tours of art exhibitions and cultural venues plus and special offers of tickets for opera, ballet, theatre, and concerts. These events, in a less formal venue, provide members a more convivial and unstructured environment that can foster the development of lasting social and business ties.

We look welcome prospective members at most of our outstanding events. Please feel free to register online, or contact us at contact@americanclubparis.org for more information.

The American Club of Paris maintains high standards for new applicants. Two current members must sponsor each new member.

Membership is open to citizens of the United States or non-US citizens interested in American culture and the promotion of ties between the United States and France. Membership is open to residents and non-residents alike.
