Passion Monument Subscription and Concerts at Sainte Chapelle

Posted by jeanm (Chicago ) on 02/10/25 10:09 PM

Has anyone actually purchased the Passion Monument Subscription for France? Have you used it to purchase concert tickets at Sainte Chapelle?

The price for the first year is €45 for 1 person, €70 for 2. In addition to free, unlimited entry to a number of sites throughout France, it offers a discount on some cultural events like concerts at Sainte Chapelle.

I'm looking at a concert at Sainte Chapelle in April and the pass would bring the ticket price from €60 to €30.

Hi! I haven't used it to purchase concert tickets at Sainte-Chapelle yet. But I've had the Passion Monument Subscription since the beginning of 2023 and I really enjoy it.

Jean...I have the 70euro Passion Monuments Pass (myself plus a guest) and did use it to book concert tickets at Saint Chapelle. I will not be in Paris until May. I am curious, did you have any trouble with your concert tickets? After I booked them, I started to wonder if each ticket would require its own Monuments Pass or if mine would be fine due to the fact that it is for 2 persons.

No problem at all. When I booked my ticket on the Theatre in Paris site, there was a notation that I would be required to show my pass.

Instead I received an email from them the next day asking me to confirm that I had a subscription. I replied that I did and provided the validity dates.

On the evening of the concert, I only showed my ticket. The pass wasn't requested.

I'm sure that if you are requested to show your pass, there will be no problem since your pass will show your duo subscription.

Thank you very much!

Do they give you a chance to walk through the space either before or after the concert?...or is it more similar to a concert in the States where they rush you out as soon as the event is over?

The seats are arranged so you really can't walk around much. However you can stand and look around and take pictures before the show. They will remind everyone to turn off phones, no pictures during the concert. After the concert they pretty much sent us on our way.

If you have time during your stay, try to book a day visit. And you can cut the daytime security line. Just show the guard you Passion pass and he'll put you ahead of others.

Also, it is open seating, divided by ticket category 1 closest to the performers. Try to get seats where 1 of you are on the inside aisle for better view. There were a lot of craning necks trying to see. But, the acoustics were great.
