French rap doesn't get bigger than this. Expect a crowd that knows every word of every verse, ready to shout the choruses back before the beat even drops. A December weeknight slot means fans travelling in after work or school, filling the arena's approach roads with a steady buzz from early evening. Shows like this tend to run long and loud, with production built for a headline act at the very top of his game.

In the Bercy district of eastern Paris, the Accor Arena is the city's leading indoor venue, its distinctive sloping green roof hosting global music tours, tennis and other sport. The surrounding area blends riverside walks along the Seine with the parks, cinemas and restaurants of Bercy Village. Métro lines 6 and 14 stop right by the arena, linking quickly across the city. Staying nearby or centrally in Paris lets you enjoy the neighbourhood before a show and ride the Métro back with ease.
