  • Poets and artists not only drank in this cabaret club, some such as Renoir and Verlaine also laid tables. Picasso even paid his bill with one of his Harlequin paintings.

  • Outrageous show of drag artists and a compère whose behaviour can never be predicted, this is close to the original spirit of Montmartre cabaret.

  • The entertainment at this club is provided by drag artists and transsexuals, and you won’t need much French to understand some of the acts.

  • This former strip club is now a leading dance venue and popular among the gay community.

  • This North African-style restaurant turns into a late-night club with DJ and a dance floor.

  • As well as being an American-style restaurant, there’s often live music or some other entertaining events.

  • Next to the Moulin Rouge, this vast club couldn’t be more different, attracting young dancers who want to dance all night.

  • One of the lesser-known cabaret venues. Its intimate nature does not undermine the professionalism of the shows.

  • World music is played here, live and DJ, with regular dance events and concerts too.

  • As old as the Eiffel Tower (1889) and as much a part of the Parisian image, today’s troupe of 60 Doriss Girls are the modern versions of Jane Avril and La Goulue.
