Zenith
Large concert halls in France are usually referred to as " Zénith " ( German Zenit ). There are currently 18 Zéniths, a 19th is under construction in Le Port on Réunion , an overseas department . The previous project of a Zénith in Saint-Denis was abandoned.
The term is protected and may only be used if certain conditions are met. A Zénith must, among other things, have a capacity of at least 3,000 spectators.
