NOUVEAU CASINO

What NOUVEAU CASINO does

Nouveau Casino is a single-venue live music establishment and nightclub located at 109 rue Oberkampf in Paris's 11th arrondissement. The venue operates as an independent concert hall and club, hosting both international and local artists across a broad range of genres including techno, house, indie rock, alternative rock, metal, jazz, punk, folk, and Afro. The venue is equipped with a renowned soundsystem and features futuristic architecture and decoration that has contributed to its underground cultural identity. Over its operating history, the venue has hosted more than 2,000 artists and served more than 2 million spectators, including internationally recognized acts such as Diplo, M.I.A., and Lana Del Rey.

The core products are the physical venue itself, the concert programming calendar, the club-night event series, and the soundsystem infrastructure. The venue operates with a small team of 6 employees and runs an event-driven go-to-market model, attracting audiences through curated programming and genre-organized event nights. Its revenue model is based on ticket sales for paid events, distributed through seven third-party ticketing platforms (Shotgun, Dice, SeeTickets, Vibess.es, Access-Live, Tubilet.com, GDP) as well as door sales. Some events are also free, suggesting a mix of paid and unpaid programming.

The business is positioned as a complementary offering to both international headliners seeking a prestigious Parisian slot and local underground artists seeking exposure on a respected stage. Marketing channels are limited to organic social media (Facebook, Instagram, SoundCloud) and a newsletter, with no app, no public API, and no disclosed technology platform beyond the venue's physical infrastructure. No ownership structure, parent company, or capital structure is publicly disclosed, and the entity operates as a Parisian independent venue with no documented expansion plans.

Direct peers

• Le Bataclan: Iconic mid-sized Paris concert venue in the 11th arrondissement hosting international headliners and French artists. Comparable capacity, ticket-driven revenue model, and broad genre programming.
• Rex Club: Paris-based electronic music club dedicated to house and techno. Comparable to the nightclub side of Nouveau Casino's programming (e.g., 'Less Drama More Techno', 'SWEAT' nights) and competes for the same underground electronic audience.

• La Cigale: Historic Parisian concert hall in Montmartre offering a similar mix of international and French acts across indie, rock, jazz, and pop. Directly comparable in scale, programming model, and target audience to Nouveau Casino.
• La Maroquinerie: Paris alternative music venue in the 20th arrondissement with a similar focus on indie, rock, electronic, and underground acts. Mirrors Nouveau Casino's alternative-curation identity and mid-sized standalone venue model.

Regional players

• Berghain: Berlin-based world-famous electronic music club and event venue. Comparable on the nightclub/electronic music side, with shared underground aesthetic and global touring artist appeal, but operates in a different geography.

Broad incumbents
