Free torchlight Halloween visit, Château-Musée de Boulogne-sur-Mer

Château comtal / Musée de Boulogne-sur-Mer

For one evening the medieval castle that houses the Boulogne-sur-Mer museum is explored by torchlight. The visit looks at how different societies made objects to keep the dead present: an Oceanian korwar, an Egyptian mummy, illustrated epitaphs, each surrounded by rituals, funerals and sometimes taboos. A thoughtful All Saints' theme rather than a fright show. Groups leave from the museum reception every half hour between 18:30 and 20:30; free, from age 12. «Soirée spéciale Halloween - Visite à la torche» Starts 18:30, ends about 20:30.

Les Frères Jacquard, musical humour with an aperitif, Boulogne

Théâtre Monsigny

On Thursday 4 February 2027 the Carré Sam takes its yearly February apéro-spectacle to the Théâtre Monsigny in Boulogne-sur-Mer. This year's guests are Les Frères Jacquard, who the listing calls a slightly old-fashioned mix of singers, comedians and street entertainers, a sort of new generation of the Frères Jacques. Their repertoire runs from rock to disco, slow songs and funk, covering and twisting songs of every style in a show of musical humour with improbable looks and equally improbable dance moves. The promise is to make the audience stamp their feet, clap and wiggle. Tickets cost 6 or 5 euros, with a free aperitif offered after the show, and the seats are numbered. The listing suggests the show from age 6, so it is a light and playful night out. The aperitif at the end is a natural moment to chat with the people next to you, which helps if you came alone. «LES FRERES JACQUARD» Starts 19:00, ends about 20:30.

Free talk on photography and film history, Carré Sam, Boulogne

Carré Sam

On Saturday 6 February at noon the Carré Sam theatre on place d'Argentine in Boulogne-sur-Mer holds one of its Folie Douce events, an offbeat talk about how the town was pictured, from still photographs to moving images. The historian Eric Popu follows the evolution of cinema in Boulogne-sur-Mer, from the first photographic plates to images that move, and asks how the town told its own story through them and how artists and pioneers looked at its port, landscapes and daily life. It is part of the 2026-27 celebrations of the bicentenary of photography and is organised in partnership with a partner called EMA. The talk is projected in the main hall in cinema mode, you sit, and drinks and nibbles are offered. Entry is free with online booking or at the theatre box office, from age 12. It starts at 12:00 and ends at 13:00. «Folie Douce "BOULOGNE SUR MER, DE L’IMAGE PHOTO A L’IMAGE ANIMEE"» Starts 12:00, ends about 13:00. Source: OpenAgenda — Carré Sam (open data).

Carré Sam

On Thursday 18 February 2027 the Carré Sam in Boulogne-sur-Mer, at Place d'Argentine, hosts a back-to-the-90s hip-hop evening.

It says both artists have crossed the eras, keep their incisive flow and their original energy, and give a quality show.

The full ticket costs 14 euros, the reduced one 12, and a Carte Sam price of 10 euros is sold only at the box office; the full price is used here.

Tickets are 14 euros at the full price, 12 euros reduced and 10 euros with the venue card, sold online and at the Théâtre Monsigny box office.

Super 8: live foley and piano cine-concert plus apéritif, Boulogne

Carré Sam

On Thursday 1 April 2027 at 19:00 the Carré Sam, on place d'Argentine in Boulogne-sur-Mer, presents Super 8 by the Cie des Gobe-sons, billed as an apéro-spectacle. It is not a usual cine-concert: on stage a musician at the piano and on small instruments sits beside a professional film foley artist, surrounded by a heap of objects and odd materials used to make every sound live. Together they give voice to the characters and objects of a series of short silent films, each more elaborate than the last, ending with the Buster Keaton classic One Week. Expect slapstick, saloon brawls, romance and mix-ups in a jazzy, funny mood. Tickets cost 6 euros, or 5 euros reduced, and an apéritif is offered after the show, which is the easiest moment to chat with other spectators. The show is open to all from age six, so the room is mixed and friendly. «SUPER 8 - Cie des Gobe-sons» Starts 19:00, ends about 20:30. Source: OpenAgenda — Carré Sam (open data).

Flaubert’s letters as a musical reading, Théâtre Monsigny, Boulogne

Théâtre Monsigny

On Friday 2 April 2027 at 19:00 the Théâtre Monsigny, on rue Monsigny in Boulogne-sur-Mer, hosts Correspondances de Flaubert, an evening of two musical readings by Hugo Mallon and the Cie l'Éventuel Hérisson Bleu. Flaubert's correspondence is often seen as a work in itself, a workshop where he tested his ideas. The first reading follows the boy Gustave writing to his best friend Ernest Chevalier between the ages of eight and thirty. The second covers 1851 to 1856, when he wrote Madame Bovary and confided the struggle to his muse Louise Colet. Tickets cost 5 euros, seating is unreserved, and the show is recommended from age twelve. The theatre bar opens one hour before and stays open one hour after, with food from Popote, so it is easy to arrive early, sit with a drink and talk books with other readers after the reading. «CORRESPONDANCES DE FLAUBERT - Hugo Mallon / Cie l’Éventuel Hérisson Bleu Gustave Flaubert» Starts 19:00, ends about 21:00.

Vinyl listening session, Monsigny Theatre, Boulogne-sur-Mer

Théâtre Monsigny

On Friday 16 April the foyer of the Théâtre Monsigny in Boulogne-sur-Mer hosts the second Session d'écoute, a talk and DJ set devoted to the vinyl record. The evening traces the history of dance music and club culture from the 1970s, showing how the disc changed the way music was produced, broadcast and lived, along with new habits of listening, socialising and partying. Guided by Pierre Vanson, listeners hear a selection of tracks and extracts from emblematic albums, from the explosion of disco to the electronic experiments that gave birth to house and then techno, and learn about the artists, venues and innovations involved. Seating is free and unreserved, and entry is free with a booking by telephone. The listing is in French, adds that a bar and aperitif boards are available on site, and suggests ages ten and over. It starts at 19:00 and ends about 21:00. «SESSION D’ÉCOUTE #2 - Rencontre autour du vinyle avec Vanson» Starts 19:00, ends about 21:00. Source: OpenAgenda — Théâtre Monsigny (open data).
