Concert halls Midi-Pyrénées

At Casino Barrière, you will find slot machines and gaming tables, but above all a performance hall that is now one of the most important stages in Toulouse.

Just before celebrating its 110 years of existence, the Utopia, emblematic cinema in the heart of Toulouse, found its first name: The American Cosmograph! Overlooking its doors, a fresco that recalls that in 1907, the date of its creation, the posters were painted directly on the façades! The aim of this very popular cinema is: best represent film diversity. All films are projected in the original version. Cultural location and land of meetings, the American Cosmograph organizes various animations: cinemas, debates, pre-premiere, thematic programming, retrospectives… Here, neither ads nor confectionery. The films start at the said time and, in order to ensure your comfort, the late ones are invited to return to a next meeting. A room for curious and passionate people.

Twenty years of cabaret for Le Kalinka. Here you'll find everything that spices up a night at the cabaret: singing, dancing, acrobatics, a few zests of sensuality, lots of humor and Berlin references.

Smart tip: you can book a private evening.

Le Bijou celebrated its 35th birthday. There's no need to introduce this totally independent Toulouse concert venue, which is dedicated to unearthing new talent, the "not yet known", the little Toulousans, in the field of contemporary music (jazz, French chanson, rock, world music...). Located in the back room of a small neighborhood bistro serving a menu renewed daily with fresh produce from the local market, it has retained all its freshness and remains a place like no other, with an atmosphere always tinged with good-naturedness.

More than ever, we want to laugh. Not a small, restrained laugh, but a real, powerful, thunderous laugh! To laugh out loud again and again... For this, there is one address: Les 3T. A café-theatre that has built up a reputation and audience loyalty over the last 30 years. A Toulouse venue that knows how to welcome the best. Well-known comedians or those in the making. Whatever the show, the quality is there. Its plus: a proximity with the stage and the spectators. Elbow to elbow, like a group of friends, we call out and are called out from the stage! The success of the show requires you to get there early to choose your seat!

This cinema is splendid, because the room was built in the chapel of the old convent. An atypical site for a quality cultural output and if the festival animation is so rich in rural areas, it is certainly thanks to the association Cinema 32 that does not spare its efforts to be at top! In Masseube, she still works in this place where we love weekly animation sessions, especially for children under 13 years of age (and their parents!) but also the eclectic programming that goes from popular cinema to authors'movies. If national exits are present with the release of recent films, some older masterpieces return regularly to the screen. Don't miss anything by following the program on the site's answering machine, because in summer there are many special evenings.

Songs, plays, one-man shows..

This highly original place combines three activities: farming, butchery and cabaret. David runs a 100-hectare farm, which he shows visitors around on a tractor-train. The farm is entirely self-sufficient, i.e. the animals are butchered on site and offered for sale. Then there's a farmhouse cabaret inn, where David's wife Laetitia prepares a meal with a good portion of home-grown produce served on the plate. On stage, a cabaret show (singer, dancer, magician...) completes the ensemble.
