Le Trianon can host conventions, kick-offs, conferences, product launches, fashion shows, cocktails, gala dinners and dance parties for 200 to 1,000 guests. Its theater takes up to 1,000 people and a seated dinner of 350 on the orchestra floor. The venue is a listed Italian-style theater from 1902 at 80 boulevard de Rochechouart, at the foot of Montmartre in the 18th arrondissement of Paris, and it remains an active concert hall.
Seminars and company events
The building is laid out as a sequence of three main spaces, which makes it easy to run several parts of an event under one roof. A plenary session can take place in the theater while breakfast, a cocktail dinner or drinks are set up in the ballroom and the winter garden, and the other way around. The theater has lighting and sound equipment, and the in-house team can introduce the production companies that work in the hall. Speakers and artists use five dressing rooms, and a kitchen and dining room are available for crew and speaker catering.
For larger programs, Le Trianon can be combined with the Élysée Montmartre next door, reached by an internal passage. Together they cover about 2,000 m²: a conference can run in the Trianon theater while the Élysée Montmartre takes a cocktail for up to 1,000 or a seated dinner for up to 600. Across both halls, a cocktail and dance party can reach 1,500 guests.
Weddings and receptions
The official site does not offer weddings. It sells private parties, gala dinners and dance evenings for companies and brands.
Rooms and capacities
The theater has an orchestra floor of 410 m² with motorized seating, so the room moves from a seated layout to a standing cocktail or a dance floor in about one hour thirty. It takes a seated dinner of 350 guests, a product presentation or a private show, and the full theater seats 1,000 across the orchestra and two balconies.
The ballroom, also called the foyer, covers 450 m² with daylight from tall windows over the tree-lined boulevard, Napoleon III moldings, a zinc bar and a dome above the buffet area. The winter garden covers 150 m² with an eight-meter ceiling, an Art Nouveau floor, a long metal bar and an iron structure and staircases attributed to Gustave Eiffel.
Accommodation
There are no bedrooms in the theater. The site links to a hotel under the Élysée Montmartre name.
Catering
You bring your caterer. A 35 m² caterer's office opens onto the ballroom, and the ballroom bar is available for service.
History and setting
The site opened in 1894 as the Trianon-Concert, on land taken from the garden of the Élysée Montmartre. A fire destroyed the music hall in the night of February 17 to 18, 1900. Joseph Cassien-Bernard, architect of the Pont Alexandre III and a pupil of Charles Garnier, rebuilt it, and the Trianon-Théâtre opened on December 18, 1902, with 1,000 seats and a facade modeled on the Grand Trianon at Versailles. It later became an operetta stage, a music hall and, from 1939, a neighborhood cinema, before returning to live music. It has been listed as a historic monument since 1982.
Getting there
Anvers station on metro line 2 is the closest stop, and bus 54 stops at Anvers Sacré-Cœur. The Q-Park Anvers-Montmartre car park is at 41 boulevard de Rochechouart. The entrance has a cloakroom for 600 coats and a lift for guests with reduced mobility.
