Concert halls Ille-Et-Vilaine

La Comédie de Rennes is a brand new venue located in the Longs Champs area. Artistic director Nilson José is himself an actor and producer. The unique, intimate 120-seat venue offers a rich program for young audiences and adults alike. There's plenty of interactive comedy to keep things light-hearted. More than just a performance venue, the Comédie de Rennes offers improvisation and acting classes for all ages, led by professionals at very affordable rates. On the practical side, the venue has free parking, so you don't have to worry about parking in the evening.

Now run by the Joli Collectif, who moved from the Théâtre de Poche d'Hédé-Bazouges to Saint-Jacques de La Lande, l'Aire Libre is a venue firmly rooted in its local area. Theater, music, dance, workshops, exhibitions... the multi-disciplinary program highlights hybrid, immersive forms that can't be seen anywhere else. Three highlights punctuate the season: the first focuses on living together, the second on youth, and the last on the international scene. The bar and bistro-theater are the perfect places to meet and exchange ideas with the artists. A place to discover and be surprised.

Housed in a former ^12th-century church, the Théâtre du Vieux Saint-Etienne is one of those places that offers great freedom of artistic expression. A creative and performance venue for local theater, circus arts and slam poetry companies, the Théâtre du Vieux Saint-Etienne offers shows for all audiences, with programming initiated by companies and events such as Ay-Roop (circus arts) and the Maintenant festival. Associated with the Mythos, Maintenant and Stunfest festivals, the stage offers many moments of grace and remarkable performances.

The ciné-club of the University of Rennes 2 welcomes you every Wednesday for double film screenings organised by the Department of Performing Arts. Benefiting from all the modern comforts and a giant screen, the cinema allows to see in very good conditions films from a program ensuring a great diversity (great classics, darker films, documentaries...), partnerships with various associations as well as the Travelling festival. Outside the cinema club, live shows, concerts and conferences are held all year round to complete a programme that allows everyone to benefit from a professional cultural offer at very accessible prices.

Located in the National Theater of Brittany, this cinema offers to the spectators to discover films of the whole world in VO with a clear preference for the cinema of author in all kinds. The program is of high quality and offers a number of different events (meetings, white cards, surprise films...). It is widely advised to follow the program attentively since, in addition to some unique screenings, the TNB cinema also offers retrospectives of certain directors by showing their complete works (in recent years: Kurosawa, Fassbinder, Ozu, Jarmusch... among others!). A marvel for the connoisseurs.

In 1998 the association La Bobine was created and allows the renovation of the «Grillon» room. The cinema then finds a beautiful place in Bréal-sous-Monfort. It is now 80 filmmaking volunteers who continue to live this art. Every year, more than 200 films are broadcast and they belong to all genres: general public films, art and essay films, documentaries, newsworks, festivals. It is true that everyone admires it with its programming for all audiences but of quality. It is true that this cinema gives the idea of what a cinema could be in a small town once rural with an essential word: conviviality. Here, you can still make a film in the home under the aegis of Jean-Luc Godard or François Truffaut. Exchanges between neighbors or between generations are warm and give the desire to return to the cinema! The Bobine offers a varied program. In this cinema, public movies, art and essays, documentaries followed by stakeholders, festivals, theme evenings, high school sessions in the cinema… This is done in very good conditions with a digital sound. A big boost to the volunteer team that animates this cinema with determination and magic! Do a survey of the accents, they keep their room, and would not swim in the popcorn in a multiplex where the place is twice as expensive! A real little paradise!

Close to Rennes and easy to reach, this new Cineville is located in a new and comprehensive leisure area (Loopiland, Upper Avenue, Level 3...) with three restaurants nearby. The cinema has a small, open-access room for viewing trailers, and six screens with seating for 86 to 408 people. The largest has a 22 m wide screen - the largest in the Rennes area. Each has the same level of comfort, with wide, comfortable armchairs with ergonomic headrests and plenty of room for your feet. We also love the duo armchairs for couples! A cozy place to get away from it all.

In this converted former service station, La Station-Théâtre in La Mézière offers exciting shows. This small 50-seat venue creates an intimate setting for shows that are often new to the region. The program is eclectic, mixing theater, poetry and other forms of artistic expression. Far from the big theaters, this alternative venue offers the chance to discover original and daring works in a warm and friendly setting. The proximity between artists and audience creates a unique bond. A veritable cultural nugget on the outskirts of Rennes, La Station-Théâtre is well worth a visit.
