Le Yoyo
What looks like a Roman Empire from the outside is in fact a club. And a pretty incredible one at that. Le Yoyo is located in the basement of a contemporary art museum on the Westside of Paris. This venue is used for many events including a huge space for music and club nights.
Rex Club
Beginning way back in 1992, Paris’s Rex Club is one of the city’s oldest and longest-running spots for techno and house parties. This space is pretty much the perfect party venue with a fully lit stage, booth lined walls and a dance floor that stretches all the way to the bar – A great venue for all you hard-core club goers.
