66 VENUE - EMEA

6MIC

6MIC, located in Aix-en-Provence, France, is a brand-new, multipurpose concert hall designed by up-and-coming architects, Rudy Ricciotti and Jean-Michel Battesti. On first glance, the venue is easily mistaken for a mountain top, with its lichen covered peaks emerging from the earth, but, on further inspection, the seamless design that blends perfectly into the natural landscape creates a concert hall that has vowed to be France’s epicentre of contemporary music. The venue gets its name from its geographical location, and was chosen by the city’s mayor. It refers to ‘seismic waves and vibrations symbolising both the desire to radiate on the territory and the idea of a project in motion’,
