About Caveau de la Huchette
This 16th-century cellar beneath the Latin Quarter has hosted jazz dancing since 1946, featuring live swing, bebop, and traditional jazz seven nights a week. The vaulted stone basement creates a unique acoustic environment, and the small dance floor fills with dancers of all ages doing lindy hop and swing to live bands.
Insider Tips
Come on weeknights for a more intimate experience with space to dance-weekends get extremely crowded with tourists and the stone cellar heats up considerably.
