Nightlife
La Machine du Moulin Rouge occupies part of the historic Moulin Rouge building on Boulevard de Clichy, repurposed as a multi-room nightclub and concert space geared toward electronic music and live acts. It's open only late on weekend nights, and reviewers describe it as a genuinely touristy but still interesting experience worth trying at least once.

What people say
"Interesting experience you have to try to make up your mind yourself. Probably rather touristic, but also quite emblematic to Paris... Come early! Like, really early: the line of people is... enormous. If you get in early, your seats will not be pleasant (unless you have VIP tickets). Do not be afraid to take a bottle of champagne included: this is a good pairing. The show itself... was not impressive at the beginning, but got exciting closer to the end. Choreography was not necessarily top notch, but the costumes and ambience are inspiring. And think about your way back, especially if you go for the midnight show, cause the metro will be closed (we pre-ordered Uber)"
