Bateau Phare

Moored on the Seine opposite the Bibliothèque François Mitterrand, Le Bateau Phare is a must-see hybrid venue in the 13th arrondissement. This cultural barge hosts an eclectic programme of live concerts, clubbing evenings, stand-up comedy and artistic events throughout the year, with a particular focus on emerging artists. On the food and drink side, there is a friendly bar-restaurant open in the evenings, perfect for a drink on the terrace overlooking the Seine or a seasonal dish before a concert. The atmosphere is relaxed and warm, just like the venue itself. With weekly events, DJ sets, live performances, open mic nights, blind tests and brunches, Le Bateau Phare lives to the rhythm of music and partying in a unique floating setting in Paris.
