Maroquinerie

Maroquinerie is an intimate concert venue in Paris's 20th arrondissement, housed in a former leather-goods workshop. With a capacity of around 500 visitors, its compact, multi-level layout keeps the audience close to the stage and creates a direct live-music experience. The venue is an established part of Paris's independent music scene, with programming spanning rock, indie, pop, electronic music, hip-hop and other contemporary genres.

The interior is designed around proximity between performers and the audience, allowing even sold-out shows to retain a club-like atmosphere. A restaurant and bar operate alongside the concert hall, making it easy to combine a meal or drink with an evening performance. The building's former industrial use also gives the venue a distinctive character compared with large multipurpose arenas.

The venue is located at 23 Rue Boyer, 75020 Paris, France, in the Ménilmontant area. Convenient approaches include Métro line 3 via Gambetta and line 2 via Ménilmontant, followed by a walk to Rue Boyer and the entrance at number 23.

Paris, the capital of France, is not only a symbol of art and romance, but also one of Europe’s most important stages for top-tier sports and music events. The city moves to the rhythm of big nights, and audiences from around the world come for a unique atmosphere that blends metropolitan glamour with the energy of supporters and fans.

A major advantage is outstanding connectivity: the Métro, RER, and Transilien networks, together with trams and buses, make it easy to reach key locations quickly—whether you’re heading to Accor Arena, Parc des Princes, or Stade de France. If you arrive by train, the main hubs include Gare du Nord, Gare de Lyon, Gare Montparnasse, Gare Saint-Lazare, Gare de l’Est, and Gare d’Austerlitz, while air travel is covered by Aéroport Paris-Charles de Gaulle (CDG) and Paris-Orly (ORY), with straightforward onward links to arenas and stadiums.

Beyond the event itself, Paris offers a wide range of accommodation and gastronomy for different budgets—from hotels in central districts to practical options across the greater city area—alongside countless bistros, brasseries, and contemporary restaurants. Visitors often appreciate how everything can fit into one day—arrival, sightseeing, dinner, and the event—without complicated logistics.

Take the opportunity to stroll along the Seine before or after the event, explore the historic core around Île de la Cité, or plan a short route through the Louvre and the Tuileries Gardens. For a different vibe, choose a walk down the Champs-Élysées, discover the streets of Le Marais, or catch a panorama from Montmartre—small details that turn a concert or match into a complete city experience.
