38Riv, Jazz club in Le Marais, Paris, France
38Riv is a music club in Le Marais housed in a vaulted stone cellar with live bands performing regularly. The venue accommodates about 50 people and gives the area its underground character.
The cellar dates to the 12th century and was originally part of the quarter's medieval structures. The space was later converted into a music club, blending old architecture with modern entertainment.
The name comes from its street address on Rue de Rivoli and today it serves as a stage for different musical styles. Visitors experience an intimate interaction between musicians and audience in close proximity.
The entrance is accessible from Rue de Rivoli and the cellar is easy to navigate for most visitors. It is wise to arrive early since the small space fills up quickly.
The stone walls of the cellar naturally produce excellent acoustics without needing additional amplification. This makes every performance a concert where the music bounces directly off the historic walls.
