Le Bal Blomet

Live musicLocals' pick

A 1920s cabaret where Josephine Baker, Hemingway and Man Ray came to dance to Caribbean jazz; legend says you only had to tell a taxi driver '33'. A local resident bought the building in 2011 and reopened it in 2017 after three years of work, with a period stage and a small balcony. Today it hosts jazz, rhythm and blues and classical concerts for about 250-300 people, in a residential corner of the 15th that few visitors reach.

Good to know

  • Concerts often sell out: buy tickets in advance.
  • Come early for a glass of wine at the bar before the set.
  • A good reason to explore the quiet 15th, where Miro and Desnos once had studios on the same street.
