About the Paris Bateau el Alamein concert venue

Having ethnic origins and that kind of feel with a friendly atmosphere, the Paris Bateau el Alamein concert venue itself was even named after an Egyptian fishing port, and open from around June to September, inside is cosy, and provides a programme with a wide variety of different of different music styles.

French chancsons, through to live jazz bands or an Edith Piaf song night are just some of the live music events that could be on the agenda, which means that the Paris Bateau el Alamein concert venue barge attracts a slighter older clientele than some of the other floating venues designed as Paris nightclubs.

And with a licensed bar, you could enjoy a quiet drink with friends amongst the plants and flowers on the terrace while enjoying tapas or cheese platters through to home made desserts and lunch is also available from a Tuesday to Friday, weather permitting.

Visiting the Paris Bateau el Alamein concert venue



You will find the Paris Bateau el Alamein concert venue permanently moored on the River Seine on the Quai Francois Mauriac in the 13th Arrondissement, by the Bibliotheque National de France library and in between the Passerelle Simone de Beauvoir and the Pont de Tolbiac bridges in Paris.

And the terrace normally opens at 5.30pm during weekdays, but at 3.30pm on a Saturday and Sunday, however, as far as we are aware, they are closed on a Monday, and the terrace is not open when it rains, yet lunch is also possible in fine weather.

Now as for the Paris Bateau el Alamein programme and up and coming events, you can subscribe to a newsletter, but sometimes there is also a poster displayed on the quay just in front of the barge and these live music events do range in cost from around €8 upwards.
