Dua Lipa is opening her book club in Paris
In addition to her newsletter Service95, Dua Lipa now runs a book club that continues to grow in scale. Launched in 2023, the reading club highlights authors that the pop star or friends of hers admire, such as Mark Ronson, who recently published a book titled Night People: How To Be A DJ in ’90s New York City. The pop star interviews writers and organizes literary events all around the world.
Good news for the singer’s fans. She will be hosting a book club on February 25th, 2026, from 7 pm to 9 pm, at the bar De Vie, located in the second arrondissement of Paris. Participants had to subscribe to her newsletter in advance to receive all the details and practical information. The admission fee costs €65. They will be able to bring books to exchange and take part in a ceramics workshop around the theme of literature. However, nobody knows yet if Dua Lipa will be here in person.
A true love story between the pop star and Paris
This book club further strengthens the ties between the star and the French capital, where she has performed several times. For months now, pop star Dua Lipa and actor Callum Turner (Masters of the Air) have been turning heads during their Parisian outings, especially during Fashion Week. In January 2025, for instance, the singer attended the Chanel Spring/Summer 2025 couture show, and was spotted in several places with her partner, whom she is reportedly engaged to.
More recently, in February 2026, the couple was spotted several times in the capital, including on the underground. Dua Lipa was also recently photographed at the recording studios on Rue Boyer.
A stop at the Hôtel Costes, a Tiffany Titan by Pharrell Williams dinner at the Hôtel Plaza Athénée, a romantic dance in front of the Eiffel Tower… The two artists have displayed remarkable chemistry during each of their Parisian escapades. They were also seen at the restaurant Chez Janou – Rue Roger Verlomme, in the third arrondissement – a place known for its Provençal-inspired cuisine. They also dined at Tarántula, located on Rue Keller, at Le Voltaire, and enjoyed coffee at Base Coffee.
A devoted fan of Parisian restaurants
The global ambassador for Yves Saint Laurent Beauté is a regular in Paris. She notably attended the brand’s event at Silencio, as well as the YSL Loveshine Factory pop-up store near Place de la République in March 2024.
Among the other go-to spots of the author of Radical Optimism (2024) are La Pâtisserie du Meurice by Cédric Grolet, Bistrot des Tournelles, Bistrot Paul Bert, the must-see flea market Puces de Saint-Ouen, and Le Marché des Enfants-Rouges. The star appears to have a fondness for vintage shops and “bistronomy”.
In her newsletter Service95, Dua Lipa has also shared a list of her favorite restaurants in the French capital. It includes the Asian canteen Double Dragon, loved by the fashion sphere, Clamato, heaven for seafood lovers, the wine bar Folderol which also serves ice cream, the rooftop Au Top, the wine cellar and eatery Early June, and the bistro Racines.
Dua Lipa’s book club will take place on February 25th, 2026, in Paris.
