Café-concert Paris 18th 75018

The tumultuous history of this concert hall does not detract from the quality of its programming. It first opened as a ballroom in 1861, before becoming a pornographic cinema in 1901, under the name "Théâtre de la Comédie Mondaine". Presumably, it was its sultry reputation that kept it going. In fact, it was here that striptease was invented! The club's warm, relaxed atmosphere is ideal for rocking till dawn, and all for a reasonable price. Be warned, though, crowds are often high!

A "band of pals" in this former hotel of the early century, ideally placed between the Abbesses and the Sacré-Coeur. Exposed beams and patina on the walls give the two rooms - a large bar and wooden tables in the first, quiet sofas and low tables in the second - a warm and intimate atmosphere. The music prevails: songs, rock, hip-hop, funk, soul, electro… And for nothing to spoil, the place offers happy hours very interesting. On the summer evenings, you will be prompted to discuss with all the clients who take the steps of this convivial meeting…

The Olympic attracts a young and cheerful clientele. For years, it has been helping to bring life to this multicultural part of the Goutte d'Or district by being a dynamic venue open to all. People mingle happily over a drink in the simplistic setting of a former turn-of-the-century ballroom. Concerts are held almost every evening in the basement, focusing on a cosmopolitan and really lively program. It's contemporary, unique and fresh. A real cultural melting pot, far removed from the stilted atmosphere of some of the capital's bars.
