La Cartonnerie

La Cartonnerie is a concert venue in Reims with two performance halls, five rehearsal rooms, and a recording studio spread across its building. The spaces are arranged to support both public performances and the artistic development of musicians between shows.

The space was created to give contemporary music genres a dedicated home in the city. Its opening shifted what residents and visitors could hear locally, establishing infrastructure for genres that had lacked venues before.

The venue shapes how the city listens to music, programming rock, reggae, jazz, rap, and electronic acts in a single space. Visitors find themselves watching established artists alongside emerging talent in a place that has become central to local musical life.

The venue sits on Rue du Docteur Lemoine with regular opening hours for visitors and event attendees. It helps to check the schedule ahead of time, as programs and availability change based on upcoming concerts and rehearsal sessions.

The building houses its own recording studio where local musicians can cut tracks and develop new ideas within the same walls where they later perform. This blend of rehearsal, recording, and performance space means artists can realize projects from start to finish without leaving the building.
