Le 106, Music venue in Rouen, France.
Le 106 is a concert hall in Rouen, in northern France, with a main room that can hold up to 1,200 people. The building also has smaller spaces that can be used for different types of events, from live shows to rehearsals.
Le 106 opened in 2010 as part of a city project to modernize Rouen's cultural infrastructure. Before it opened, the city lacked a hall of this size built specifically for live music.
Le 106 draws crowds of all ages, with concerts ranging from hip-hop to electronic music and rock, making it a meeting point for music lovers in the region. The venue is often where young local bands get their first chance to play in front of a large audience.
The hall is on Allée François Mitterrand and is easy to reach on foot from the city center. Tickets for popular shows tend to sell out fast, so booking ahead is a good idea.
The building was designed by Atelier d'architecture King Kong, a studio based in Bordeaux, not in Rouen. Its outer shape was directly influenced by the acoustic needs of the interior, which gives the exterior an unusual look that stands out along the riverfront.
