Paris Épicentre

Paris Épicentre is a hired event hall in Paris’s 12th that turns into a bachata social on Sundays rather than a permanent dance club. The space at 24 Rue Antoine-Julien Hénard is a large multipurpose hall with rows of comfortable, sturdy chairs and reception-style seating; reviewers note clean restrooms. It’s used for receptions and community events, so layout and floor space depend on the promoter — expect a cleared area for dancing and occasional extra fans when the room warms up.

Most dance nights are single bookings run by community promoters, not nightly programmed socials, and the music/programme varies with each organiser. If you arrive alone you’re likely to be welcomed — reviewers repeatedly praise the staff and hosts — but check the event listing or the venue website before you go for start times and any cover charge, as everything is event-dependent.
