Cercle Festival

Since its creation in 2019, the Cercle Festival has established itself as a one of a kind event, blending electronic music, visual art, and historical heritage. The idea is to transform exceptional locations into spectacular musical stages, creating an immersive experience where history and modernity collide. After taking over the Domaine national de Chambord, the festival set up at the Air and Space Museum in Paris–Le Bourget, an iconic site of aviation and space exploration.

International DJs perform at the foot of legendary aircraft such as the Concorde, the A380, or the Ariane 5 rocket, offering festival goers an atmosphere that is both futuristic and steeped in history. Each edition highlights emerging and established artists, while integrating artistic installations and collaborations with cultural and scientific institutions. In 2026, the festival takes a new leap by partnering with the European Space Agency (ESA) and CNES for an edition dedicated to innovation and space exploration.

A unique setting and an eclectic lineup

From May 22 to 24, 2026, the Air and Space Museum in Le Bourget will host the Cercle Festival for the third consecutive year. For the first time, the event will span three days, featuring a rich lineup of 44 international artists across three emblematic stages: the A380 Stage, beneath the wings of the giant aircraft; the Ariane Stage, at the foot of the iconic rocket; and the Concorde Stage, set between two supersonic planes.

Headliners include names such as Eric Prydz, Adriatique, ANNA, Kerri Chandler, ARTBAT, Ben Böhmer, Lane 8, and Étienne de Crécy, representing a wide range of electronic genres from techno to afro house. The 2026 edition also shines a spotlight on French talent, with artists like Anetha, Enfant Sauvage, and Thylacine.

An immersive and innovative experience

Cercle Festival is far more than a music event: it’s an invitation to a sensory and cultural adventure, where every detail is designed to inspire awe. With live performances, breathtaking stage design, and exceptional aeronautical heritage, the 2026 edition promises to be the most ambitious yet. Whether you’re passionate about electronic music, history, or simply seeking a unique experience, this is a date you’ll want to mark in your calendar right away.
