Concert venue by Bernard Tschumi in Cenon's Parc Palmer, with three halls for world music, jazz, soul and pop, usually from 20:30.

Le Rocher de Palmer opened in 2010 in Parc Palmer in Cenon, on the right bank, in a 6,700 m² building designed by Bernard Tschumi with Véronique Descharrières. It has three halls: Le Rocher 1200, Le Rocher 650 and a salon for up to 450 standing. World music and jazz have been at its core since the opening, and the Corazón latino festival of salsa concerts and dancing has run there since 2012.

Concerts usually start at 20:30. October 2026 brings Fat Freddy's Drop, Gnawa Diffusion and La Chica, and Lee Fields plays in February 2027. A TBM Pass Soirée costs €3.50 and covers 19:00 to 01:00. Not for you if you want a club night: this is a concert venue, about 20 minutes from the centre.
