  • Le Bataclan will reopen on Wednesday, November 16th. The Paris venue closed following the coordinated terrorist attacks that took place on November 13th last year. It was one of several locations targeted on a night in which 130 people were killed in the French capital. As previously reported, Le Bataclan, which has been rebuilt exactly as it was, has booked Pete Doherty for its reopening night. The UK musician, who recently unveiled new material inspired by the tragic events, will play two consecutive gigs on November 16th and 17th, followed by Senegalese singer Youssou N'Dour on the 18th and 19th. One week later, on November 24th, Laurent Garnier will headline a club night hosted by A.K.A, the booking agency co-managed by Nuits Sonores and Alias Production. The French veteran will share the bill with Voiron and Gordon, who will DJ back-to-back, and Arnaud Rebotini, who will play live.
