Théâtre Mogador, a majestic venue in Paris

Paris's 9th arrondissement, home to many iconic the aters, is one of those hyperactive spots that do honor to theParisian art of living. The Théâtre Mogador is just a stone's throw from the bustling Faubourg Montmartre, in the heart of the City of Light. Behind its majestic neo-Moorish facade lies a sumptuously ornamented auditorium with a capacity of over 1,600.

Founded in 1913, it is the brainchild of show producer Alfred Butt. Inspired by English-style music halls, it was inaugurated in 1919, after the end of the First World War, in the presence of Woodrow Wilson, then President of the United States. Since then, the Modagor Theatre has played host to world-renowned talents such as Mistinguett, Edith Piaf, the Rolling Stones and Sting.

Listed as a historic monument, the Théâtre Mogador has in turn unveiled its share of Russian ballets, musicals and concerts, making the venue a cult address in Paris's festive heritage. Today, the Théâtre Mogador offers a diverse program for all audiences, to the delight of lovers of the performing arts!
