It is an offer qualified as “new” by those who will wear it which should open on December 2, 2021 in the Cartoucherie district in Toulouse.
On the central square under construction, “The 500” will propose, on 500 m2, several offers :
- A tile from the producers, “With the best of regional and seasonal products” says the project leaders. This producers’ square will be animated by a large Christmas market for the opening.
- A cafe-bar, “Warm and festive”, animated by the Toulouse craft brewery.
- A traditional pizzeria.
- A wine cellar.
- A concierge of area.
Soon one of the largest hybrid places in France
The 500 will open just in front of the Halles de la Cartoucherie, where in two years, if the schedule is respected, must open one of the largest hybrid places in France.
A place where we will find a large gourmet hall of 3,000 m² with 1,500 seats and 30 stands delegated to local restaurateurs but also a multimedia school, a Dance School, an early childhood space, a new kind of green space called “urban jungle”, a climbing pole, a concierge, a library and offices for companies …
“The 500”, a laboratory
Until then, “Les 500” will animate the site. The Cosmopolis collective, which carries the Les Halles project, wants to use this new place as “an experimentation laboratory”.
In addition to the café-bar and the pizzeria, Les 500 will see the opening of two food stands “to test the offer of candidates from the Gourmet Hall”, indicates the Cosmopolis collective.
One hundred events per year
“Beyond this offer, culture and sport will also be present through a sustained program of events – around a hundred a year – to continue the foreshadowing and show the diversity of activities that will shake the Halles de la Cartoucherie à term ”, concludes Cosmopolis.
