Get DirectionsAbout Toucan Fringuant
Au Toucan Fringant on the Quai de la Monnaie is a colourful bar‑dansant that pairs a large tequila and mezcal list with tapas and a DJ-led dance area. Wednesday is explicit: two bachata classes (débutant + intermédiaire) then a 100% latino social; Thursday is Shatta night, DJ sets of dancehall, afro and urban. The bar opens from 16:00 and runs until 02:00; soirées generally begin around 21:00.
The layout is bar-first rather than a ballroom: standing tables, stools and a cleared spot for dancing with the DJ in a corner. Expect DJs not live bands, themed nights and drinking alongside the dancing. Reservations are optional but advised for groups. The venue sits in Saint-Michel on the riverbank and is tram- and bus-accessible with parking nearby. If you want a tequila-led party with a short class to warm up, this is the practical pick for midweek latino nights.
