A Prestigious and Unique Setting

Theatres are iconic venues known for their architecture, décor, and artistic vibe. Renting a theatre gives your guests a truly extraordinary experience in a place that leaves a strong impression from the moment they arrive.

Spacious and Adaptable

From intimate rooms to grand auditoriums that seat hundreds, theatres come in all sizes to suit your needs. Whether you're planning a conference, seminar, or team-building session, there's always a theatre that fits your guest count perfectly.

Built-In Professional Equipment

Stage, dressing rooms, theatrical lighting, sound systems, video projection, these venues are made for performances, so they’re fully equipped to handle corporate and professional event requirements.

An Immersive and Artistic Atmosphere

Theatrical spaces naturally immerse your guests in a refined and engaging setting. Whether it’s for a presentation, a corporate dinner, or a keynote, the environment adds intensity and emotion to every moment.

What Kind of Events Can You Host in a Theatre?

Business Events and Conferences

Holding a seminar, conference, meeting, or workshop in a theatre is a great way to break free from the traditional corporate setting. A change of scenery boosts attention, sparks creativity, and fosters participant engagement.

Corporate Parties and Private Receptions

Theatres are perfect for company events, networking sessions, or team celebrations. Their layout allows you to mix social time with on-stage presentations or performances.

Professional Launches and Presentations

Organizing a product launch, innovation showcase, or corporate ceremony in a theatre brings elegance and drama to your event. The stage can be used for presentations, award ceremonies, or demonstrations.

Photo Shoots, Filming, and Artistic Events

Thanks to their stunning sets and natural or theatrical lighting, theatres are often used for photo shoots, video productions, and creative content projects. They offer a visually powerful and distinctive canvas for professional media.

Tips for a Successful Theatre Event

Book the Venue Early

Theatres are in high demand, especially in major cities like Paris or Lyon. Be sure to book several months in advance, especially if you're planning an evening or weekend professional event.

Work with Experienced Vendors

For a smooth event, hire professionals used to working in cultural venues: caterers, tech crews, stage managers, or decorators. Their familiarity with the venue's technical specifics is a big plus.

Customize the Space to Reflect Your Brand

Many theatres let you personalize the entrance hall, lobby, stage, or even the dressing rooms. With creative lighting, decoration, or a bespoke set design, you can craft a truly unique vibe for your corporate event.

Plan for Guest Experience and Safety

Make sure the theatre offers a proper guest experience: accessible entrances, signage, coat checks, fire safety, wayfinding staff… All these elements help make your event run seamlessly.

How to Choose the Right Theatre

Location

A centrally located theatre or one near public transport is a big win for your guests. Cities like Paris, Lyon, or Bordeaux have plenty of theatres that are easily accessible by metro or car.

Capacity and Layout

Choose a theatre that suits your guest list and event format. Some venues also offer additional spaces (lounges, mezzanines, gardens) that are perfect for cocktails, workshops, or VIP areas.

Available Services and Equipment

Check what’s included: projectors, microphones, dressing rooms, furniture, catering, and more. A well-equipped theatre helps cut down on logistics and simplifies planning for professional events.

Rental Terms and Budget

Prices vary depending on the date, duration, capacity, and services included. Some theatres offer all-inclusive packages, while others provide custom quotes. Always clarify the terms upfront for your corporate or professional event.
