From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Le Zénith is the common name for more than a dozen similar, purpose-built concert venues in France. There are 15 such venues located in Caen, Clermont-Ferrand, Dijon, Lille, Limoges, Montpellier, Nancy, Nantes, Orléans, Paris, Pau, Rouen, Strasbourg, Toulon and Toulouse. The first Zénith was built in Paris in 1983 to replace the converted slaughter-house Pavillon de Paris.

World Wrestling Entertainment held a house show at Le Zénith in Paris in April 2007, where the Women's Championship changed hands twice, as Melina lost the title to Mickie James, and later won the title back.

Total Nonstop Action Wrestling will hold an event at Le Zénith on January 24, 2010.

The venue has a capacity of approximately 7,000 for concerts.
