By far the most renowned Gypsy Jazz venue in Paris is the self-proclaimed 'Temple of Gypsy Jazz', La Chope des Puces. Located a few steps from the bustling Sunday flea markets in the outskirts of Paris, Le Marché aux Puces, this small and intimate bar is also near the area where the father of gypsy swing lived and played. A large mural of Django sets the stage and the walls are decorated with the guitar cases and photos of gypsy-guitar masters of years gone by. La Chope hosts weekly Gypsy Jazz concerts on Saturday and Sunday afternoons, where many maestros stop by regularly to play, such as Ninine Garcia, Tchavolo Schmitt and Patrick Saussois. The place comprises a concert room, a restaurant serving traditional French cuisine and a Gypsy Jazz music school, which is sponsored by Ninine Garcia. Concerts start from 2pm on Saturdays and Sundays and continue until around 7pm. Address: 122 Rue des Rosiers Saint-Ouen 93400 Metro: Porte de Clignancourt Tel: 0140 112 880
