Le Hall de la Chanson
Reviewed by Elena Voss · Roavina Travel Editor
This place is a Theatre.
Pavillon du Charolais is the building occupied by Le Hall de la chanson in Parc de la Villette, behind the Grande Halle. The operator uses the address Parc de la Villette, Pavillon du Charolais, 211 avenue Jean Jaurès, 75019 Paris. La Villette identifies it as the former butchers’ canteen dating from 1867. Since 2013 it has housed the national centre devoted to the heritage of French song; its higher-education theatre school was added in 2018.
The building is temporarily closed to audiences during the entire 2026–2027 season for major renovation. Le Hall de la chanson is presenting that season’s programme at other venues around France and expects to return to a fully renovated theatre in autumn 2027. Do not travel to Pavillon du Charolais simply because an event appears on the Hall’s agenda: open the individual listing and verify its venue. On-site box-office timing and ticket prices from earlier seasons do not describe access during the closure. Future reopening details should be checked with the operator before visiting.
For orientation, the pavilion is inside Parc de la Villette. The operator lists Porte de Pantin on Métro line 5 and Porte de la Villette on line 7, tram T3b at either stop, and buses 75 or 151 at Porte de Pantin and 139, 150 or 152 at Porte de la Villette. Cycle routes follow Canal de l’Ourcq and avenue Jean Jaurès, with bicycle parking outside the Hall. A ramp serves the performance room, but this does not create public access while renovation is under way. General contact remains +33 1 53 72 43 00 and [email protected].
