Music venue at the Friche la Belle de Mai with techno, trance and dub club nights from 23:00 to 05:00, plus concerts.

Le Cabaret Aléatoire is the club and concert hall of the Friche la Belle de Mai, the arts complex at 41 rue Jobin in the 3rd arrondissement. It is a scène de musiques actuelles, a publicly backed contemporary music venue, and it bills itself as Marseille's home of electronic culture since 2003. The autumn 2026 calendar runs from deep techno and hard trance to dub, house and rap, with Autechre in concert on 13 October.

Club Cabaret nights start at 23:00 and finish at 05:00, with Shotgun tickets from about €6 to €23; concerts cost more. In summer the team runs Thursday parties on the rooftop, and its Utopia Festival filled the Friche on 25 and 26 September 2026. Not for you if you want to walk in late without a ticket: the bigger nights sell in advance.
