La Machine du Moulin Rouge

This has to be one of the most iconic Adult Entertainment Venues in the World. The outdoor attraction of the rotating windmill sails and the bright lights at night just cannot be ignored. The price is governed by the attendance and as the shows are crowded, so the cost will remain high. Having been some years ago, I can say it is still a memorable and much revisited topic for holiday delights.

Nice venue, nice people working there. But the crowd is very childish. I had grown men (25+) trying to act funny grinding on me because I'm fat, spilling their drinks on me and looking at me in disgust while all I did was dance. They treated me like a circus act and made my last night in Paris feel sad. I hope these people will grow up some day.

Was there last night for an ElectroParty. I think they have a very nice club venue for this purpose. Not deadly overcrowded, reasonable prices and the music was nice. There were some chairs to sit as well to rest a bit! Might go back again 😊

I've been here just during the day and not at night when is this place opened. That's the show time so I haven't the real experience. To me this place is a bit pricy but that's just my personal opinion. Anyway this is an iconic place and it's just 20 minutes by walk from the famous church on Montemarte. So why not just to have a look around. Thank you 🚀

I would give 0 if i could. The ruddest bouncers i have ever come accros. Especially the women bouncer who was of larger size. Refused entry because i was solo. Wasn't given a single reason why i was refused was just told i will be refunded. Honestly the worst every experience i have ever had at a club will never be coming here again i really advised against it. They really go against rave culture and what its all about.

Went there for a concert, the sound is 8/10, which is kinda good for Paris standards. The bar is well organized and the layout is great

Zsongo all white party was too much fun 😎

For a place that claims to promote freedom of expression and open-mindedness, refusing entry to a solo traveler is deeply disappointing. I was neither intoxicated nor disrespectful—simply alone. Yet, I was turned away. Sadly, this seems to reflect a broader reality in Western society (I am Romanian). The word "freedom" is often used, but only within the limits of their own interpretation. It’s unfortunate that, being here in Paris without my friends from home, I am effectively excluded from experiencing the city’s nightlife. Is this what an open-minded, free world looks like today? It seems so.

Very good show. In addition to the cabaret the had acrobatics. Some were really good, especially the roller skating couple. We did not have seats on our tickets so not sure how they assign them. Be sure to show up an hour early to get in line.

La Machine is a ridiculously large club and venue space in the middle of the Moulin Rouge area of Paris - in fact it is probably one of the biggest places I think I've ever been to in terms on indoors club space (well in a flow with one room down a hallway) We were here visiting for a friends Stag do and came to see Tha Trikaz and a number of other top electro acts. I must admit that I didn't stay super long as I was feeling massively tired but my pals who were there till closing said it was a great live music venue and they partied late into the night! The area of Moulin Rouge wasn't as glam/edgy/cool as I was hoping - not really like Amsterdam, not really too underground and cool seedy - just a lot of Irish bars and street salesmen.

So this one time, while waiting for the Eurostar to Paris, I saw Skrillex. SKRILLEX! Brutal dubstep DJ extraordinaire! Said sighting was all the more thrilling because I had "seen" Skrillex, in concert In London The very night before Despite all the voices in my head telling me to leave him alone I went to him to say hello. Said "hello" actually kind of sounded like this: "OHMYGODI'msuchahugefanofyoursIsawyouinSanFranciscoandthenlastnightinLondonandIjustthinkyou'rethefuckingshitanddidImentionIwassuchahugefan???" At some point during the above amazing "conversation" He asked where I was going And I said Paris And I asked where he was going And he said Paris And then I joked, "Maybe I'll come see you again tonight" At which point he turned to his manager and said, "Can we put her on the list?" In my head: EEEEEEEEKKKK!!!!!!!! From my mouth: Oh, yeah, I mean, whatever man. Cool. He played at La Machine du Moulin Rouge (Like, inside the old Moulin Rouge!!!!) Observations at La Machine du Moulin Rouge: All the bar staff wore these cute, incredibly French stripey t-shirts. The drinks were an extraordinarily reasonable 4 euros a pop. I learned about a new drink. It's called mojito a la champagne. It's a mojito, but you put the champagne where the soda water used to be. You should get it. I also learned that "tequila" is also "tequila" in French. I love the cramped, super uncomfortable smoking room at the front where you can squeeze yourself against an ungodly number of attractive Frenchmen. I was asked if I had MDMA maybe 6 times in 2 hours. French bouncers are maybe the nicest bouncers in the whole entire world. French gigs are maybe the smelliest gigs you will ever go to in your life.

La Machine du Moulin Rouge is a huge, three floor nightclub and bar located next door to the famous Moulin Rouge windmill. A large group of us came here for Excuse My French présente Otodayo Records w/ Tha Trickaz - a night of insane DJ electro music the likes of which I'd never experienced in my life before. From what I can remember, which, thanks to copious amounts of booze before and during isn't that much, there are plenty of sets of stairs so watch your footing - especially down to the lower levels. The bar is pretty well stocked, but don't expect much change from €10 for your beer. Pick the right gig and you'll have a great time here. If you're not into big nights and large (mostly drunk and excitable) crowds, it really isn't going to be for you.

Wow, I was so not impressed. Came here because of the reviews. Cost 10€ per person to get in, age range was 18-25 but the music was atrocious. 70's and 80's sing along songs with karaoke words running on a big projector. Bouncer wouldnt let us come back if we left (even with our tickets) and even told us the music is the same all night. Most recent song played was "Barbie Girl) smh

Great club great club! Hands down! We were super disappointed about Rex from the night before. But my parisian friend insists Moulin Rouge is a must-go. And yes, the sofa near the entrance still remain the classics of Moulin Rouge. Two main stages is not a big deal. But the third floor was the live for Nova Radio. I was imaging my favourite Digitalism and Sebastian all kind of started like this... This beats Brooklyn(willamsburg) and Amsterdam for me :)

The place is below average in all respects. We had read the reviews and decided to check it out. The waiting was almost an hour, entry fee was 16 euros per person and once we reached inside it was full of 20 year olds dancing on 70'd music. For us that wasn't fun at all. They have a terrace but had been shit for 2 weeks and only opens on winters. The music was simply boring. Pls avoid going there.

La Machine is definitely the best place to party in Paris. They builded it like if it was the Moulin Rouge background...for tourists you'll got the chance to see the famous Moulin Rouge at least once if you come to this place,but La Machine is a way different to the real Moulin Rouge... The entire location is amazing, befrore it was "La Loco" and you can find a train set up at the entrance, the main room is so big that you never miss space to breath and dance like it could be in any other Parisian club. They always got the best venues (electro / dubstep / trap / moombahton / electroswing...) , DJs from all around the world, the soundsystem is really powerful and you can easily dance in front of the scene or somewhere beetween the different floors. There's another room named "La Cale", I went there once to do an electroswing party with DJs Bart & Baker and it was so great, I thought I was back to the 20's or that I landed on the Titanic because the place is done like a ship hold...never seen that before! They got a special night named Splash // dubstep redemption and believe me those nights are so crazy...you need to be overmotivated to stand more than 6 hours screaming, jumping and dancing, but it's so good that you won't need any kinds of drugs. Something that I do appreciate in this place as well is the fact that people are nice and they don't argue to give you a glass of water...something really helpful when you jump all night long. The only "bad thing" is the queue that you can have to take back your stuff at the end but it's understandable in spite of the amount of people that can fit in the room... I spent really great nights over there, I've seen Diplo, Eptic, Zeds Dead, Bare Noize, Getter, Protohype, Niveau Zero, Megalodon, Cookie Monsta, Trolley Snatcha, Culprate, Bart&Baker, Cashmere Kat...... I do recommend La Machine,you will spend the greatest Parisian night you could...

The place is big, very good sound, they have decent cocktails, is not bad for a parisian club. They do a lot of soirées electro, the dj's aren't always the best but at least there's space to dance. There are rooms that are more quite by the bar to sit and talk. I'm not a fan but is better than most night clubs in Paris. They could do better though to make the party more exciting, all they have is the music, place & cocktails, nothing extraordinary going on.
