Concert halls Pas-De-Calais

Le Channel is the cultural powerhouse of Calais. Promoted to the status of "Scène nationale" in 1991, the association took up residence in the town's former abattoirs. The renovation of these buildings in 2007 gave a boost to its programming, which combines circus, culinary arts, concerts, theater, street arts... These quality shows are intended to be convivial and festive before being intellectual. The Channel also features annual highlights such as Les flâneries sonores, held in February, and, in some years, Feux d'hiver during the last days of December. Like its program, the association's buildings are surprising: this cultural venue has retained its industrial soul, and since 2009 has housed a bar, restaurant and bookshop. The former water tower has been transformed into a belvedere, offering a breathtaking view of Calais after 122 steps. The marquee opens and closes its colorful canvas like an accordion. The Channel staff are happy to give guided tours: just give them a call to make an appointment.

The obscure halls of the Régency have been classified as art and trial, a young public label, for the quality of its programming and animation for children (in 2005). A room only, but of quality!

A vast complex of fifteen rooms with giant screens and digital. In addition, there is a games room and a candy counter, what spend a good time, for both the small and the big. All rooms are accessible for disabled guests. Supplement 3 D offered on Sunday morning.

A concert hall equivalent to the huge bunker of Bercy, but in the Nord-Pas-de-Calais. Yet we do not think enough about it, when more and more major events are taking place there. So think: 14 000 places! It doesn't take any more to see large names of international scenes make a small hook by our region. Muse or Depeche Mode made the move. Here the sound is warm and does not stop in all corners of the room, as in Paris… In spite of the size of the Arena, there is a certain closeness to the artist. Unfortunately, the imminent delivery of the Grand Stadium could bring big sizes to prefer this new high place of the department for ever more shows. Shame.

This concert hall places culture and art in honour. Here for all tastes: concerts: French rock or song, theatre for big or small, but also exhibitions and cultural actions of all kinds.

Special hotels like this, there are still about ten to Arras. Built in the th century on the Parisian model, the Hotel de Guînes, completely restored, opens onto an elegant paved courtyard and houses the unique Maison de la Pas-de-Calais. A place of artistic expression and meetings, it houses the Batterie de la Battery association. On the ground floor, a bar welcomes artists and spectators, framed by a multimedia area and a book devoted to the book. On the first floor is the hidden spectacle of a blue night. Here are the concerts and theatre pieces scheduled throughout the year. The inner courtyard, for its part, serves as exhibition or stage venues for outdoor shows.

A large complex located on the Cambrai road, at the exit of Arras, and composed of a dining room, making brasserie in the afternoon and evening, a large seminar room that can also host meals, a third dining room and finally a show room, animated all year round except during the great holidays. A real cabaret, where you can enjoy music-hall performances, magic or circus performances, theatre performances or some-man-show show. A long time for groups, this space has been open to the public for several months. It is also possible to privatize the place for cocktails or evenings. As for the brewery, it welcomes you every lunchtime and evening, except Mondays and Sundays evenings and on Saturday noon, and offers traditional cuisine with a few dishes of the cru (potje'vlesh, andouillette d'Arras, etc.), with a welcome to small care. 

The Comédie de Béthune is one of 33 national drama centers in France. The theater's mission is "theatrical creation in the public interest". The Comédie de Béthune offers high-caliber theatrical works for all audiences, at very attractive prices: expect to pay around twenty euros for a full-price ticket. The theater also offers workshops for amateurs and theater professionals, debates and meetings with artists to discuss their creations...
