Billetterie

Les Plages Électroniques are back for their 18th edition, ready to break records once again. After three sold-out days in 2024 with 60,000 attendees, 90 artists and performers, and countless hours of live music still resonating on the beach of the Palais des Festivals in Cannes, the festival is unveiling the first names for its line-up—all set to perform on the festival’s Main Stage.

More than just a Beach Party, Plages Électroniques has established itself as one of the major summer events in France and in Europe across three days. Coming from all over Europe to dance with their feet in the water, in the sand, or in the Palais des Festivals, the public will be able to enjoy the multiple stages which include the beach, a rooftop and on the terrace of the Palais des Festivals, a stage on the water, an after party inside the Palais des Festivals and daily boat parties on a catamaran, for a non-stop party that runs from 2pm to 5am.

The six stages of Les Plages Électroniques will once again host a diverse array of artists, pushing decibels above the Croisette for what promises to be an incredible edition. First amongst the names is CHARLOTTE DE WITTE, a trailblazer in electronic music who continues to dominate charts, magazine covers, PEGGY GOU has gone from underground sensation to global dance music icon and represents one of the most recognizable names in the international scene. TIËSTO is a living legend of electronic music and Grammy winner who will perform his only French date of the summer. ERIC PRYDZ, famous for the hit Call on Me and his visually stunning performances, brings his uniquely produced electronic music to the festival. 

FRANCIS MERCIER, with over 75 million streams, blends culturally rich and melodic house sounds that have landed him collaborations with major names like Diplo and Major Lazer, French DJ and producer KUNGS rose to global fame with chart-topping hits and international recognition will join forces with PURPLE DISCO MACHINE. 

BOOBA is one of the most influential rappers on the French scene and will take the Cannes sands this summer for his only date in southeastern France. With a career spanning two decades, 10 albums, multiple certified singles, and records including gold, platinum, triple platinum, and diamond, he remains an unparalleled icon in French rap while LUIDJI also brings some first class rap sounds. JERSEY, brothers Carl and Renaud, captivate audiences with their high-energy performances and innovative sound that bridges French Touch and indie rock and finally for now, TRYM, Paris’ hottest DJ, brings his “Rave of the Future” to Cannes.

Returning to the atmospheric Banffy Castle after the success of its 2019 installment, Electric Castle have announced details of their 8th edition. Proving popular worldwide, over 50,000 festival goers (per day) will be welcomed back to the breathtaking setting of Banffy Castle for a jam packed five days of music, food, yoga, cinema and so much more.

With a wide variety of artists set to perform (including Twenty One Pilots, Foals, Floating Points, Fisher, Amon Tobin, Tycho, The Neighbourhood Rezz , Zhu, Purple Disco Machine, High Contrast, Camo & Krooked, MC Dynamite & Meute) Electric Castle once again deliver a beautifully curated and eclectic line-up that the festival’s name has become synonymous with.

Also boasting some truly mesmerizing art installations at the on-site New Media Castle, EC will continue to push the boundaries with incredible works from Robert Henke, James Clar and Clare Hentschker on display. These include hypnotic shapes, complex feedback loops, modulated effects and virtual archives of broken polygons that feel almost real but not quite.

Electric Castle takes place on the outskirts of Romania’s cultural city of Cluj. The festival is set amongst the beautiful grounds of the dramatic Banffy Castle, often being described as Romania’s answer to Versailles.

A hedonistic and immersive experience, Electric Castle is a truly unique festival with a multitude of musical genres to match. By mixing arts and technology with an eclectic musical line-up, unique architectural concept and the breathtaking scenery of the amazing medieval castle, Electric Castle redefines the way people interact with a music festival, breaking the boundaries between electronic music and reggae, mainstream and subculture.
