This is the only irregularity noted during the night from Friday to Saturday, during the control operation carried out by agents of the “cabaret group” of the Pimping Repression Brigade (BRP) in three nightclubs in the capital.
At the Petit Palace, an establishment in the rue du Faubourg Montmartre (Paris IXth district), they noticed that behind the bar, the staff were not wearing masks.

“It had escaped us, concedes Antoine Bourachot, one of the managers of the nightclub.
This is a rule that we had not fully understood insofar as customers do not have to put their mask in the box.
However, to get to the dance floor, the staff ask them to put on a mask which will be removed a few meters further on.
Same surprising measure at the Key, boulevard de la Madeleine (Paris IXth).
No cluster since reopening
The Petit Palace reopened on July 9, but only on weekends.
“Some customers get tested only once on Friday to spend the weekend.
We noticed that people did not get tested twice a week.
Our employees who are not vaccinated do the same, ”continues the manager of the establishment.
Despite these new constraints and the tonnage limited to 337 people against 450 in normal times, Antoine Bourachot noticed that the customers were there. And he congratulates himself: “We did not have a cluster here. People scan the QR code of the digital reminder notebook. If a person who attended the establishment had developed the Covid, we would know it. Since we reopened, that has not been the case ”.
