Pop rock and variety concert halls Ille-Et-Vilaine

Housed in a brand-new building straddling the Cleunay and Courrouze districts, the Antipode is no half-measure. Its imposing monolithic structure includes two concert halls, one of which can accommodate up to 900 people, a creative workshop, rehearsal studios, spaces dedicated to artistic practice... and even a library. The history of this MJC is deeply rooted in the Cleunay district. A veritable institution in Rennes, the Antipode focuses on contemporary music and offers a wide variety of programming, including rock, rap, soul, pop, jazz, electro, hip-hop and metal, as well as a program dedicated to young audiences.

Since 1987, the Ubu has been organizing a number of concerts and events around music throughout the year. A small hall whose configuration allows a beautiful communion between the artist and the public, it has the advantage of having terraces allowing the audience to spread out in height around the pit as well as a very pleasant bar area. It is also known for its mythical pole, object of puns since generations, which hides the stage to those who would have the misfortune to be in the bad angle. A must in the cultural landscape of Rennes, with an eclectic program, the UBU offers great posters and is a good support to the independent scene.

On the banks of the canal, halfway between the town center and the Etangs d'Apigné, La Guinguette, the MeM's open-air stage, has a bohemian ambience. Come for a drink and share a cornet of charcuterie, eat miso sesame beef or a salad of vinegared rice with fish "burnt" with cucumber and spring onion - recipes by Julien Lemarié. Weekend barbecues. From Thursday to Sunday, the Guinguette invites musicians from eclectic backgrounds. The superb Magic Mirrors tent offers concerts, festivals, conferences and other events all year round. A site that has quickly captured the hearts of the people of Rennes.

It is the concert hall of Saint-Malo. The space is divided into two rooms: a large room of 920 places including 180 seats and a club of 180 places where are welcomed open stages, cinemas concert, small intimate evenings during the week, most often on Thursday and free. It opens onto the smoking area, a terrace in the open air that is appreciated on summer evenings. La Nouvelle Vague also has four rehearsal and recording studios, with several sound systems and good acoustic equipment, and two dressing rooms.

Le Jardin Moderne was born of a desire to bring together players in the contemporary music scene in a single venue, and has become an essential space for all those who want to make music, make a living from it and even rehearse. It houses a concert hall with an audacious program, made available primarily to local players, seven rehearsal studios, a bar... There's even a restaurant, open to all, for lunch. But first and foremost, the Jardin Moderne is a resource center, with a documentary collection, supported by an expert team ready to assist artists in their development. A place made for music and by music.
