Small twist in the cultural life of Nantes. Four months after announcing its closure, the emblematic Michelet Stage will finally live for three more years, we officially learned on Wednesday. The mythical concert hall hitherto trendy rock will change its tone somewhat since the new project which will settle there next Thursday, called Decadancewill focus more on electronic music.
Led by the Big City Life association, which thus bounces back after the failure of 23, this “new place of artistic, festive and ephemeral life” will also give an important place to the visual arts with exhibitions and conferences, Wednesdays and Thursday evenings. Several residences of local artists are planned, specifies the town hall which rented the place to the former boss of the café-concert and signed an occupancy agreement with the new operator. Respecting daily life and the public tranquility of the neighborhood is one of them. In 2025, Décadanse must make way for a real estate project.
