Le Corum

Le Corum is a distinctive convention, cultural and exhibition complex in central Montpellier, designed by architect Claude Vasconi. The monumental building, clad in pink granite, brings together three auditoriums: the 2,000-seat Opéra Berlioz, the 745-seat Pasteur and the 318-seat Einstein. This versatile configuration allows the venue to host international congresses, conferences, concerts, opera and ballet productions, as well as other major events.

Inside, the spaces are designed for both professional gatherings and cultural performances. Opéra Berlioz is particularly suited to concerts and large-scale stage productions, while the smaller auditoriums provide a more intimate setting with good views of the stage. The complex also offers around 6,000 m² of exhibition space, more than 20 additional meeting rooms and offices, catering areas and modern technical infrastructure, making it possible to accommodate a wide range of event formats under one roof.

Le Corum is located at Esplanade Charles de Gaulle, 34000 Montpellier, France. The adjoining underground Corum car park provides around 500 spaces, while the Corum tram stop is immediately beside the complex, allowing visitors to reach the entrances with minimal walking.

Montpellier, a lively city in the south of France, blends a Mediterranean vibe with the energy of major events and nightlife. It’s known for how easy it is to plan a night out here—whether you’re coming for a concert, a sporting fixture, or an evening in the city center. With a compact core, plenty of terraces, and a relaxed atmosphere, it’s an excellent choice for an event trip, offering the feel of a city that knows how to welcome visitors and turn every outing into a complete experience.

Getting around is especially simple thanks to the Tramway de Montpellier and the TaM (Transports de l'agglomération de Montpellier) bus network, linking key neighborhoods with arenas and stadiums. If you arrive by train, the main station Gare Montpellier Saint-Roch sits close to the center, while Gare Montpellier Sud de France is another important hub for arrivals and connections. For air travel, there’s Aéroport Montpellier Méditerranée, and the mix of public transport and road infrastructure makes reaching venues fast and convenient—whether you’re coming from downtown, the stations, or the airport.

Before or after the event, it’s worth exploring the city’s classics: Place de la Comédie as the heart of an urban stroll, the historic old town Écusson with its narrow streets and squares, and the viewpoints and promenades around Promenade du Peyrou. For a slower pace, take a walk along the Lez River, where you can step away from the crowds and round off the evening in a city that works just as well as a destination as it does as a stage.
