💛 Why we love it
Marché Gare is one of the best places to discover Lyon's independent music scene. We love its warm atmosphere, its demanding yet open programming, and the close connection it offers with the artists. It's a place where you experience authentic concerts, often before the artists become household names.
Le Marché Gare is an iconic concert venue on Lyon's independent scene. Located in the former Perrache wholesale market, in the heart of the Confluence district, it offers a cutting-edge program focused on contemporary music: rock, pop, electro, hip-hop, folk, indie and emerging artists.
