We prove that the weakly damped cubic Schrödinger flow in L 2 (T) provides a dynamical system that possesses a global attractor. The proof relies on a sharp study of the behavior of the associated flow-map with respect to the weak L 2 (T)-convergence inspired by [18] . Combining the compactness in L 2 (T) of the attractor with the approach developed in [10], we show that the attractor is actually a compact set of H 2 (T). This asymptotic smoothing effect is optimal in view of the regularity of
