Le Triton is a renowned concert hall dedicated to contemporary music and jazz located in Les Lilas, a commune in the eastern suburbs of Paris. Opened in 1984 following renovations to a former swimming pool (hence the name “Triton,” referencing Neptune’s son), the venue has become a significant platform for both established and emerging artists in these genres. It is recognized for its excellent acoustics and intimate setting which fosters close interaction between performers and audiences. Le Triton actively supports artistic creation through residencies and commissions alongside its regular program of concerts. The hall is managed by the local authorities of Les Lilas and benefits from national support for live performance venues.
