Le Grand Mix, Concert hall in Tourcoing, France
Le Grand Mix is a concert hall in Tourcoing with a capacity of around 650 people that presents a wide range of musical genres. The programming includes indie rock, pop, rap, electronic music, and jazz from local and touring artists.
Le Grand Mix opened in 1997 in the former Notre-Dame Catholic circle building in Tourcoing. It is run by the association La Passerelle and has been awarded the Scène de musiques actuelles label by the French Ministry of Culture. Since 2016 it has led DEMO, a project on sustainability in contemporary music.
The hall's name appears in white letters on a grey panel beside the entrance. Its programme covers chanson, pop, rock, folk, hip-hop and electronic music, and it runs the Grand Mix Academy seniors, a choir of people over 50 performing songs by the Beastie Boys, the Ramones and Philippe Katerine.
The concert hall is centrally located in Tourcoing and is easily accessible by public transportation, including the Tourcoing-centre tram stop and nearby bus routes. The city center location makes it convenient to explore the area or grab a meal before or after a show.
The venue started the Grand Mix Academy seniors, a choir of people over 50 performing current songs by the Beastie Boys, the Ramones, Philippe Katerine and MGMT. It grew out of the hall's cultural outreach work with audiences distant from cultural practices.
