From 1,000 to 2,800 people
The Amphithéâtre
The Amphitheatre has 1000 m2 stage and a capacity of 2,800 seats in a 180° semicircle that can be increased to 3,200 seats by adding additional stands on the side stage.
The stage has exceptional technical equipment.
A hydraulic forestage can be used either to bring the audience right up to the stage level or as an orchestra pit.
This venue is unique as the audience can enter and leave via the stage where an external door at the back of the stage opens onto a 4,000 m2 public area.
A permanent control room at the back of the hall contains high quality technical equipment and various stage configurations can be used for plays, one-man shows, dance spectacles, musicals, singers, classical music concerts...
