Paris - Bars & Nightlife
Paris’ night life offers you lots of trendy and popular bars serving all kinds of drinks with a good mix of people, music and sometimes live DJs. Paris has an intense and diversified night life. From high-tech dance clubs to mellow jazz haunts, there is always something that fits your mood. Also try the famous cabaret venues for a great dose of vibrant entertainment!
Moulin Rouge
A cornerstone of Paris’ night life are the Cabarets. Lido, Crazy Horse and Follies Bergères are all famous worldwide, but maybe the most famous—Moulin Rouge, is unique for its elegant shows. Not to be missed!
Favela Chic Paris
This is a hot spot—literally speaking! The atmosphere in this Brazilian bar (and restaurant) is exotic, lively and friendly. The bar is often packed with people and can get very hot however, the bar staff has a habit of cooling the guests off with a water hose!
La Perle
La Perle is a favourite amongst the “bohemian chic” Parisians as well as international stylists, artists, models and so on. It’s a perfect place to start your evening at, or to just have a conversation over a glass of wine. Though it is often crowded, it has a homely and friendly atmosphere.
Le Nouveau Casino
This is also a famous venue that keeps on rocking until dawn—both in the bar downstairs and the medium-size dancehall upstairs. Le Nouveau Casino is also a great concert host.
Buddha Bar
This temple-like establishment is still very popular for its ambience at the cocktail bar. Top DJs deliver mood-setting tunes and the globally famous venue has spawned franchises all over the world.
Point Ephémère
Canal Saint-Martin in the 10th Arrondissement is a trendy area colonized by artists and young creative workers seduced by its lazy charm. You’ll find several nice venues such as L’Atmosphère, Chez Prune or Le Repaire.
Le Queen
Le Queen is a famous place, located on the Champs-Elysées. It is the place to groove and be beautiful, and it’s not strictly gay as people usually think. You’ll also meet celebrities and people from creative fields.
Rex Club
This renowned electro club has always drawn a crowd since the mid-1980s. It is home to a terrific sound system with top international acts. Expect long lines at the doors, especially for Friday’s events.
