Moulin Rouge dancers took to the streets of Paris to perform the iconic French cancan as crowds gathered for the final stage of the Tour de France.

The performance outside the famous cabaret drew spectators waiting for the cyclists to pass, adding a touch of French tradition to the race finale.

Dancer Millie Dang, who is from Australia, said watching the Tour de France in person was a dream come true after growing up following the race on television, adding that the riders' speed is even more impressive in real life than it appears on screen.
