If you’re looking for a place with some real depth (literally), head to Rue Taitbout. Here, you’ll find a monumental dance floor nestled beneath an eight-meter-high ceiling. A former Polish bank from the 1930s located just a stone’s throw fromthe Opéra Garnier, Club Haussmann in Paris has become a must-visit for anyone looking to explore the best things to do in the 9th arrondissement.
It has established itself as the mecca for the capital’s most mysterious themed parties, with immersive experiences like the Edgar Allan Poe Speakeasy or the Serial Killer Speakeasy.
Why is Club Haussmann a unique venue?…
What strikes you first and foremost is the respect for heritage. Unlike other renovations that erase the past, Club Haussmann has preserved its original vault doors and wrought-iron balustrades. It is one of the few places in Paris where you can dance among the remnants of a financial institution from the last century.
The venue spans two levels, covering a total area of 700 m². This layout offers a rather wild “theatrical” view of the crowd. It’s no wonder that luxury brands and organizers of immersive shows are flocking here . The contrast between the original “Haussmannian” style and the futuristic lighting installations creates an electrifying atmosphere.
What can you expect once you’re inside?
The moment you walk in, the journey through time begins. After pushing open the impressive original wrought-iron door, you pass through a reception area inspired by vintage cabarets, with its blue and gold tones. The ground floor then reveals a majestic 500-square-meter hall worthy of old-fashioned bank lobbies. Between the banquettes and the imposing bar, the atmosphere evokes the grand social evenings of the 1930s.
As you head up to the mezzanine, the atmosphere becomes more intimate. This 200-square-meter space overlooks the main room and offers a view of one of the venue’s greatest treasures: a giant pre-war safe door. It is here that you can enjoy a unique perspective on the party below: a striking contrast between banking prestige and a festive spirit.
