Salle Wagram, Historical performing arts center in 17th arrondissement, Paris, France.
Salle Wagram is a performing arts venue in Paris featuring a grand ballroom structure from the 19th century. The building showcases elaborately painted ceilings and historical railings that reveal its classical design.
The building originated in 1865 as an entertainment venue under the name Bal Dourlans. In 1981, it received historical monument status and became officially protected.
The venue served as a stage for legendary artist performances and shaped Paris's cultural memory as a destination for refined entertainment. Today, it continues this tradition as an important gathering place for music enthusiasts and art lovers.
The venue is located on Avenue de Wagram and provides seating for up to 1,300 visitors during events. Staff members are available to assist with event planning and catering arrangements.
In 2000, an unusual musical experiment took place here where singers performed at different locations across Paris while the orchestra played in the hall. This project showed the boundaries between traditional performance and modern artistic collaboration.
