Rap concerts in Paris

207 rap concerts in Paris, across 86 venues — 4 of them free and median entry price €32. Listings updated on .

Alongside pop and rock, rap is the repertoire large Paris venues programme most, and the geography of its dates shows it. In our upcoming listings La Cigale and the Zénith come first, followed by the Accor Arena, the Olympia, the Adidas Arena and the Bataclan; further down the capacity ladder, La Maroquinerie, the Élysée Montmartre and the Cabaret Sauvage host rising albums and emerging acts. The same artist can move from one to the next within two years.

That step-by-step progression has a practical consequence. Rooms of one thousand to fifteen hundred are where you see best, and often where tickets go fastest; arena dates offer production on another scale but a very different relationship to the stage depending on where you stand. On those large capacities the price we display is the cheapest entry ticket: the actual seat is chosen on the ticketing site, where the gap between categories is considerable.

This page gathers every rap and hip-hop date announced in Paris, each with its venue, start time and a link to the official or partner ticket seller. The list is updated daily and paginated, so later pages reach further into the catalogue. If the artist you are after is not listed yet, their own page on the site lets you follow announcements, and the date filter on the home page shows everything playing on a given evening, all genres together.

One last note on how bills are announced: many of these nights feature several artists, and the support act is not always confirmed when tickets go on sale. The title on a listing is the one supplied by the ticket seller, and it may gain names before the show. The “Tonight” and “This weekend” pages, meanwhile, let you start from a date rather than from an artist.
