The Royal Palace, second largest cabaret in France

The Royal Palace, in Kirrwiller, is the second largest cabaret in France and the first in the region. Located in the heart of Alsace in a small village of less than 500 inhabitants, the Royal Palace, which has just celebrated its 40^e anniversary, offers ever more sophisticated magazines every year. With more than 200,000 spectators per year, the recipe for its success is to renew its show each year with a third musical comedy, a third attractions and a third ballet. The Royal Palace show is resolutely modern. Its international reputation attracts the greatest artists from around the world: 45 people on stage, 300 costumes, gigantic sets and the cutting edge of technology thanks to a 35 meter wide LED wall (the largest in Europe). The Royal Palace is Las Vegas… in Alsace! The kingdom of feathers and rhinestones.
