Petit Bain

Petit Bain is a cultural venue and live music club in Paris, France, located in the 13th arrondissement and open since 2011.

The programming here is consistently busy, with shows covering the underground rock, indie, punk, hardcore and metal scenes, among other genres.

Over the years, the stage has hosted acts including Lagwagon, Gorgoroth, Sham 69, Grey Daze, Therapy?, Fulci, Les Fils de Joie, Kingfishr, Witch Club Satan, Bad Nerves, The Vintage Caravan, Die Krupps, The Night Flight Orchestra and Marky Ramone.

With a capacity of 450 people, the venue offers a much more intimate, up-close experience with the artists than you’d get at a larger hall.

One of the things that really makes this place stand out is its location and the sheer range of things going on under one roof. Petit Bain is housed on a floating structure on the Seine, combining a concert hall, bar and restaurant.

In summer, the bar expands and opens up a terrace right along the riverbank — a great spot to grab a drink before or after a show.

Petit Bain also operates as an SCIC (Société Coopérative d’Intérêt Collectif), a French cooperative business model focused on collective interest rather than pure profit.

The club is close to other major cultural landmarks in the French capital, including the Parc de Bercy and the Accor Arena, both located on the opposite bank of the Seine.
