Les Voûtes de Napoléon
Another jubilant boîte à chanson. Its impossible-to-find-on-your-own entrance means it will likely be just you and the locals – it’s underneath the Restaurant Bonaparte. If you can’t find the entrance, just ask a local to point you in the right direction.

Chez Son Père
One of the city’s best-loved boîtes à chanson, this spot boasts a great atmosphere and is probably the first place locals will send you if you’re interested in seeing this rollicking kind of French folk music. Cover charge varies; sometimes it’s free.

Foufounes Électriques
A one-time bastion of the alternafreak, this cavernous quintessential punk venue still stages some neat events (eg a DJ ‘starmaker’ night or indoor skateboard contest). On weekends the student-grunge crowd plays pool and quaffs brews with electro kids and punk stragglers.

Il Motore
The baby of the Casa del Popolo family and indie concert promoters Blue Skies Turn Black is a show venue hidden in an unsuspecting warehouse building. The well‑planned space is perfect for catching the latest indie rock, alternative and pop acts.
