At Les Folies d'Edmonde, karaoke means taking the stage. A 17th-century vaulted cellar in the heart of Nice Old Town, warm lighting, a host to lead the evening, the house cocktails and over 10,000 songs to choose from, in a room that feels closer to a cabaret.
Les Folies d'Edmonde brings several kinds of music together beneath the vault of the same 17th-century cellar, at 16 rue Benoît Bunico in Nice Old Town. People come for karaoke led by a host, a U.NICE.ON jam session, an occasional concert, a music trivia night or a DJ set; the stage, the bar and the audience are only a few steps apart.
A jam session is never quite a concert. A stage opens up, musicians answer one another, the audience is close by, and a song sometimes changes direction halfway through. This guide gathers the jam calendar for Nice, with links to the venues and organizers, to check before you head out.
At Les Folies d'Edmonde, music trivia (the French "blind test") is a team quiz, played to win but never too seriously: the DJ plays track after track, and it's up to you to name the song or the artist. Tourists and regulars mix, the level rises fast, and every round you win earns your team a prize. It runs every week, on Monday or Tuesday night, in the vaulted cellar of Old Nice.
Once a month, the vaulted cellar of Les Folies d'Edmonde, in Old Nice, becomes a stand-up stage. Stand Up Vie, an association based in Nice, presents the Stand-up Nights there: five to six comedians from the local scene, one theme per night, and an audience seated a few steps from the mic. Tickets are sold online, on the association's ticketing page.
