What Mia Mao does

Mia Mao (operating entity MM CLUB, RCS Paris 920 836 202) is a Paris-based electronic music club and multimedia platform. The company's core product is a 3,000 m² venue housed in a former industrial hall at 2 rue de la Clôture in the Parc de la La Villette, opened January 17, 2025, which features an innovative sound system, lighting scenography, a 360° stage, and a strict no-photo policy enforced through camera covers distributed at entry. Beyond the physical venue, Mia Mao operates a multi-platform ecosystem comprising Mia Mao Live (DJ sets and interviews streamed on YouTube and SoundCloud), Mia Mao Radio (a 24/7 webradio via RadioKing), and Mia Mao Records (a Paris-based electronic music label launched in 2024 releasing EPs on Bandcamp and streaming platforms).

The business operates on multiple revenue streams: ticketing for themed club nights (pre-sale 10–35€, door 15–35€) processed via the Shotgun platform, on-site beverage sales under License IV, music royalties and direct sales via the in-house record label, and venue hire or co-production fees from external event organizers. Programmed event series include Thunder, Vice City, Code Culture, Deepsea Grooves, Amnexia, ROAR by Pisica, the Gudu Records (Peggy Gou) residency, an exclusive Paris date with Drumcode (Adam Beyer), and a UKF bass-music event. The venue also runs prevention and harm-reduction programs compliant with French regulations and holds GDPR-compliant data practices.

The company is privately held with €1,000 share capital, led by Arnaud Perrine as legal representative and director of publication, with a small operational team that is actively recruiting across bartending, prevention, communications, and event production roles. The customer base consists primarily of individual electronic music enthusiasts attending events, supplemented by performing artists, labels, and external promoters as programming and venue-hire counterparties. Distribution combines physical attendance, direct online streaming, and continuous webradio playback to a global audience.
