Our database for France holds 1,577,933 records (as of 4 November 2026); they are not yet assigned to industries. The quote states the size available for this industry.
Export of the whole industry: €269 (full price). Selections by region, department or your own filters are quoted on request.
Official statistics: 189,824 businesses in France according to Eurostat, structural business statistics (sbs_ovw_act) (reference year 2024, data as of 30 September 2026). Section R arts, entertainment and recreation (divisions 90 to 93). Membership organisations, trade unions and religious organisations (division 94) are not covered by the structural business statistics. This is the size of the market, not the size of our database.
First choose the type of organisation (gyms, clubs, cultural venues, professional bodies), then the area. The legal form, filled in after matching with Sirene, will then let you keep or exclude associations.
Our records do not yet carry a NAF code: selecting by activity (NAF subclass) will only be possible for records matched with the Sirene database (matching in progress). The quote states what can be done today: area and required fields.
The official figure shown covers only arts, entertainment and recreation; the membership organisations of division 94 are not counted in it.
Price of the whole industry: €269. A selection by region, sub-industry or required fields is quoted individually; the whole-industry price is not a price promise for the filtered selection.

The sector combines arts, entertainment and recreation (divisions 90 to 93 of NAF rév. 2) with the membership organisations of division 94. Legal form and sector do not coincide: a football club is classified under 93.12Z whether it is an association or a company, and the educational activities of a professional body belong to education.
NAF separates fitness facilities (93.13Z), sports clubs (93.12Z) and the operation of facilities such as swimming pools, stadiums or golf courses (93.11Z). In live performance, companies and artists fall under performing arts (90.01Z), sound, lighting and set providers under support activities (90.02Z); ticketing is classified under 79.90Z, with tourism.
| NAF rév. 2 | Official INSEE title | What the code covers |
|---|---|---|
| 90.01Z | Performing arts | theatre and dance companies, orchestras, circuses, independent artists |
| 90.02Z | Support activities to performing arts | sound, lighting, sets; production without artistic responsibility |
| 91.02Z | Museums activities | museums of all kinds |
| 93.11Z | Operation of sports facilities | stadiums, swimming pools, golf courses, bowling alleys |
| 93.12Z | Activities of sport clubs | football, swimming, chess, shooting clubs and others |
| 93.13Z | Fitness facilities | gyms and bodybuilding clubs |
| 94.1 | Activities of business, employers and professional membership organisations | employers’ and chamber organisations (94.11Z), professional bodies (94.12Z) |
| 94.99Z | Other membership organisations based on voluntary membership | campaign groups, consumer associations, veterans’ associations and others |
An association can be listed in the national register of associations without being registered in Sirene. That is the main limit of any file built from business registers.
The 15 columns supplied are described on the export page.
An association may be registered at a volunteer’s home or at the town hall: the registered office is not always where the activity takes place. For an equipment supplier, the hall or pitch matters more; our place sources give its address where it is published.
Most clubs run on a season from September to early summer. A mailing received before the restart, when equipment purchases are being planned, is more likely to be read than a letter sent in July.
Clubs often use generic addresses (contact@, secretariat@), which belong to the legal entity and fall outside the rules on email prospecting according to the CNIL. For a volunteer’s personal address, the condition that the message relates to the recipient’s profession is hard to meet: stick to generic addresses.
We supply fitness equipment and are looking for gyms (93.13Z) and sports clubs (93.12Z) in Île-de-France and Hauts-de-France that have a website, to invite them to our trade show. Can you leave out records without a NAF code and tell us how many remain?
Use cases

Offer policies to facility operators and event organisers.

Questions
No. Our file is built from published places and websites: an association with no premises, no public page and no website is not in it. For the purpose and registered office of declared associations, the reference source remains the RNA, published as open data by the Ministry of the Interior.
Not yet: our records do not carry a NAF code or a legal form yet. Fitness facilities have their own subclass (93.13Z), separate from sports clubs (93.12Z), and the forme_juridique column will separate companies from associations for records matched with the Sirene database (matching in progress). The quote states how many records already carry this information.
The Ministry of Culture publishes the list of live performance declarations with their status, which according to the ministry is authoritative. Our export does not contain this information, but the SIRET lets you match the two files for records already matched with Sirene.
