Jass Club, located in the 8th arrondissement of Paris, holds a significant place in the city’s jazz history. Established in 1951 by Eddie Barclay as Le Club d'Essai, it quickly became a prominent venue for American jazz musicians visiting Europe during the post-war era. Renamed Jass Club in 1952, it hosted legendary performers such as Miles Davis, Duke Ellington, and Ella Fitzgerald. The club is known for its intimate atmosphere and commitment to showcasing both established artists and emerging talent within the jazz genre and related styles. Throughout its history it has undergone several renovations but retains its core character as a dedicated space for live music performance.
