La Baleine Blanche

11 Port de la Gare, 75013 Paris, France

Moored at Port de la Gare, in Paris's 13th arrondissement, La Baleine Blanche is an event barge available for exclusive hire for private and business events. This unusual venue has two decks, offering around 200 m² of space that can be adapted to suit the key moments of the day or evening. Depending on the layout chosen, it can accommodate up to around 180 people for a drinks reception and 80 seated guests.

Event organisers can plan a wedding, birthday, christening, reception, seminar, meeting or corporate evening here. The different levels make it possible to separate work and relaxation, or to create distinct atmospheres for a meal and a dance party. The barge is equipped with a sound system, a projection screen, a stage area, a cloakroom and bars. An outdoor area complements the rooms, depending on conditions and the layout selected.

The food is prepared on board in a professional kitchen. Several packages are available, including a cocktail dinner, brunch and a served meal. The team can also help organisers coordinate and personalise their reception, with entertainment or decoration options to suit the event. Requests involving an external caterer can also be considered.

La Baleine Blanche offers exclusive hire during the day or in the evening, with timings suited to the type of event. Located close to Quai de la Gare metro station and car parks, it gives event planners an original Parisian setting for bringing guests together on the banks of the Seine.
