Stairway, Rock music bar in Vieux Lille, France
Stairway is a rock music bar spread over two levels in Lille's old town, featuring a lounge bar on the ground floor and a dance floor in the basement. The lower level with its vaulted ceilings serves as an additional space for dancing on most nights.
The venue expanded its musical focus in recent years to include funk and soul music alongside rock. This shift came through the creation of a dedicated basement section where DJs could program a wider range of styles.
The basement becomes a dance space from Thursday to Sunday where DJs spin tracks from the 1980s and 1990s. Fans of rock music gather here regularly to dance and enjoy the sounds of those eras together.
The place opens Wednesday through Sunday with extended hours until 6 AM on weekends. A happy hour runs daily from 6 PM to midnight, making early visits more appealing.
The basement features vaulted ceilings and operates at moderate volume levels compared to other nightclubs in the city. This quieter sound allows visitors to dance while still being able to talk with each other.
