Le mem can host seminars, conventions, general meetings, company parties and weddings from 20 to 2,000 guests, in a mirrored tent of 1,200 square meters and a separate pavilion of 200 square meters. The site lies at La Piverdière, on the banks of the Vilaine, a few minutes from the center of Rennes.
Seminars and company events
Companies book Le mem for seminars, conventions, general assemblies, cocktails, corporate evenings and team-building days. The Magic Mirrors takes a plenary session of up to 600 people or a seated dinner of up to 500. Its mezzanine, two bars, private lounges and dressing rooms allow a program to run on several levels: a talk on the stage, networking at the bars, a smaller meeting in a lounge. For a smaller group, Le Pavillon takes a plenary of up to 100 people, from 20 guests, with its own entrance. The two spaces can be booked separately or together. The team follows each project from the first visit to the day of the event. A Club Entreprises also gives member companies VIP seats at concerts with hospitality.
Weddings and receptions
Le mem sells weddings, birthdays, ceremonies and large private receptions. Le Pavillon suits a wedding dinner of up to 60 seated guests or a cocktail for 130, with a view of the Vilaine and 90 square meters of terraces. A larger wedding can move to the Magic Mirrors, with a seated dinner for up to 500 guests under the mirrors and gilding of the tent.
Rooms and capacities
The Magic Mirrors is the main hall: a spiegeltent with mirrors, gilding, red drapes, wooden parquet and mirror balls, spread over more than 1,000 square meters on two levels. Listed figures are 500 for a dinner, 600 for a plenary, 1,200 for a cocktail and 2,000 for a concert. A bio-climatization system keeps the tent comfortable in summer and winter. Le Pavillon is a contemporary reception room of 200 square meters, extended by 90 square meters of terraces: 60 for a dinner, 100 for a plenary and 130 for a cocktail. Across the site there are 840 square meters of terraces, three bars and two private lounges. The Magic Mirrors and the Guinguette are accessible to people with reduced mobility, with adapted toilets.
Catering
The Magic Mirrors and Le Pavillon each have a catering office for the caterer in charge of the event. On concert nights, food is served on site. In the warm months, the Guinguette serves pizzas, salads, sharing boards and weekend barbecue, with nearly 700 outdoor seats. A new all-day restaurant and bar, l'idem, opens on the site this fall, with sharing plates, fresh produce, grilled dishes and house cocktails.
History and setting
Le mem first opened in 2019 and was reinvented in 2026 in a new format. It sits on the natural site of La Piverdière, between the city center and the Apigné ponds. Through the year it runs concerts, shows, balls, festivals and conferences alongside private events, so the venue is used to large audiences and to stage production.
