Le Raidd, LGBT bar and pub in the 4th arrondissement, Paris, France
Le Raidd is an LGBT bar and pub in the 4th arrondissement of Paris, in the Le Marais neighborhood. The space has a bar counter, seating areas, and a dedicated show area used for the nightly performances.
Le Raidd opened in 2003 in Le Marais and introduced its shower shows from the very beginning, making them a defining feature of the venue. Over the years, it became a regular stop on the LGBT scene in Paris.
Le Raidd sits in Le Marais, one of the oldest LGBT neighborhoods in Paris, and draws a mixed crowd of locals and visitors. The bar is known for its nightly shower shows, where performers entertain the audience under running water starting around midnight.
The bar opens daily from around 6 pm and stays open late into the night, with a happy hour running until about 10 pm when many drinks are available at half price. Arriving early in the evening is a good way to get settled before the crowd picks up closer to midnight.
Le Raidd has two private rooms that each hold up to 40 people and can be rented for private events with no base fee, as long as a minimum amount is spent at the bar. This makes it an unusual option for group celebrations inside an active nightlife venue.
