A variety of stakeholders develop articulated strategies in order to face urban global competition by emphasising the attractive potential of experiential consumption. This article adopts a post-structuralist approach and focuses on a selection of apparently disjointed elements characterising the tourism promotion of leisure shopping in Paris. The French concept of mise en tourisme is introduced. The sociospatial implications of the promotion of leisure shopping in the city are analysed by combining tourism approaches with urban studies.

Keywords: Retail; tourism; city marketing; urban competition; Paris.
