On the tracks of the Petite Ceinture, the sound of trains has been replaced by music. This former Petite Ceinture station has been transformed into a lively jazz club, bringing joy to Paris every single evening of the year, without fail.

Whether you're a resident of the 19th or just passing through, this is one of the coolest spots to visit at least once in your life in Paris. The concept is simple: a station transformed into an underground jazz club, an unruly atmosphere, and concerts every night... plus some extras if you're lucky. Be warned: once you go, you'll want to come back!

An ultra eclectic program

Music lovers, get ready for a lineup that's as varied as it gets: from pure jazz to the most danceable grooves. Improvisation, free jazz, afrobeat, funk, electronic experiments… The station shuns labels and embraces musical encounters that break the mold. The result: live concerts 365 days a year, often followed by sizzling jams that can last until the break of dawn.

A raw, vibrant, untamed place

With its bare walls and a deliberately underground vibe, La Gare has kept the spirit of its railway past. We gather closely, sweat a little, and enjoy drinks at the bar or on the terrace by the tracks, while musicians play just a few meters away. Here, the audience is part of the journey. And above all, we keep quiet because we’re here to listen and feel the music. Party crashers, just move along.

The Hangout for Musicians (and the Curious)

Truly the headquarters of the contemporary Parisian jazz scene, La Gare is also a playground for international artists passing through. Many come to test, improvise, and take risks. And it's exactly this taste for danger that gives the venue its reputation: every evening is unique, unpredictable, sometimes surprising, and very often magical.

When the Station Becomes... the Gore 

After midnight, it's time to switch tracks. As the last notes echo upstairs, the night is just getting started. Head down to the basement to discover the Gore: red lights, raw concrete, heavy beats, and frantic BPMs: the old station transforms into a true temple of techno. It’s all about moving bodies, hypnotic sets, and endless nights. With a sharp electronic lineup that's often darker and more radical, it attracts both savvy clubbers and fans of hybrid spaces.

Jazz in the evening, techno at night. The same building, two vibes, one obsession: to make Paris vibrate until the break of dawn.
