J for JAZZ in Paris

Merci to Girls Guide to Paris for suggestions..

Jazz

Parisians love jazz and have a long history of appreciating this musical form. We love to take in some jazz here, and the city boasts many more clubs than New York. In June and July there is a wonderful low-key jazz festival in the Parc Floral’s Bois de Vincennes that only costs 5 euros.

Charlie Birdy...

There are three locations in Paris, and you can grab a bite here, too. They have gospel brunches on Sundays, plus, at the location in the 8th, the décor has recently been updated to give you more of an Indian vibe—there’s even an ice bar. Half-price drinks for happy hour, weekdays 4 p.m.–8 p.m.

Duc des Lombards...

42, rue des Lombards, in the 1st. 01 42 33 22 88.
One of the best jazz clubs in town.

New Morning...

7–9, rue des Petites Ecuries, in the 10th. 01 45 23 51 41.
For fabulous jazz.
