The Best Live Music Venues in Paris

Paris may not be a well-known music hub, but there are plenty of lively music venues to discover in the city!

For the History Buff

Let’s start with the fabulous Le Bal Blomet! If you haven’t visited yet, you should add it to your list of Jazz clubs. The Bal Blomet opened its doors in 1924 making it Europe's oldest Jazz club! Their lineup includes traditional jazz music, as well as contemporary musical performances. They welcomed a host of famous personalities, like Josephine Baker Ernest Hemingway Albert Camus and more!

For the Film Critic

Le Caveau de la Huchette is located just a stone's throw from Notre Dame, and it is one of Paris’ most well-known Jazz clubs with a focus on 1920’s jazz. For those of you who may be wondering if this location looks familiar, it made an appearance in the film Lalaland.

For the Purists

Located between the Boulevard Saint Germain and the Pantheon, the Église Saint-Ephrem des Syriaques is an 18th century classical music venue! Recitals are given by talented musicians, from the National Conservatory of Music of Paris.

The Philharmonie concert hall in Paris is a must for music enthusiasts. During the day you can explore the Musée de la Musique (music museum), and in the evening you can enjoy a concert in one of their three music halls, their largest can host up to 2,400 people!

For a Meal and Show

Known for its good food and good music, Le Pop-Up du Label seems to have the best of both worlds! Split over two floors means you hopefully won't have to wait too long to enjoy it all! The menu is seasonal, with a focus of bringing haut cuisine to the masses.
