SO/ Paris Raises a Glass to Summer With Picnic by Veuve Clicquot

SO/ Paris, the boldly designed five-star hotel that has redefined contemporary luxury in the heart of the capital, is elevating the summer in Paris dining experience with its participation in Picnic by Veuve Clicquot, the celebrated brand’s program that transforms select French destinations into elegant open-air dining experiences.

Poised along the Seine at the crossroads of Paris’s most dynamic neighborhoods, SO/ Paris has established itself as a destination in its own right, where daring design, world-class hospitality and the pulse of the city converge. This summer, it brings the art of the Parisian picnic to life, pairing seasonal cuisine with the storied elegance of Veuve Clicquot Champagne and the Maison’s iconic Brut Carte Jaune—to be enjoyed under open skies, from the banks of the Seine to the shaded gardens of the Place des Vosges.

Open to hotel guests and Parisians alike, the Picnic by Veuve Clicquot experience at SO/ Paris is a food and Champagne pairing conceived to honor the convivial spirit of the French pique-nique while maintaining the standard of excellence the hotel is known for. At 70€ per person, the offering includes a gourmet salad with a choice of lobster, chicken or vegetarian, a selection of French cheeses, bread and feuilletée brioche, and a seasonal fruit tart; paired with a half-bottle of Veuve Clicquot Brut Carte Jaune for two, or a full bottle for four.

This partnership builds on SO/Paris’s ongoing commitment to bring culturally resonant collaborations to life across its public spaces—from the lobby to the restaurant and beyond. It also sees the hotel join Veuve Clicquot’s wider 2026 summer program, which extends the picnic experience to a curated constellation of exceptional venues across France: an acknowledgment of SO/ Paris’s standing as one of the capital’s most distinctive luxury destinations and a fitting home for an experience defined by France’s signature refinement, character and joie de vivre.

Guests can also find the full range of Veuve Clicquot’s iconic cuvées, including the Carte Jaune, Rosé, Rich and La Grande Dame, available throughout the hotel.
