The Cognac Blues Passions Festival is gearing up for its 33rd edition, set to take place from Wednesday, July 1st to Saturday, July 4th, 2026. What’s on the agenda? Four days of live music to explore in the streets of Cognac. Once again, excitement, surprises, and a diverse lineup are on the menu for this edition of the Cognac Blues Passions Festival, promising to captivate and inspire you all over again.
Recall last year’s festival, which featured stars like The Kills, Barbara Hendricks, Jon Muq, The Robert Cray Band, Robert Finley, Keziah Jones, along with Michael Kiwanuka, Jalen Ngonda, and Earth Wind & Fire Experience by Al McKay. So, who will have the honor of taking the stage at the Festival Cognac Blues Passions in 2026? Well, the answer is Jean-Louis Aubert. The renowned singer and guitarist has announced a visit to Charente on Thursday, July 2, 2026, for a one-night-only show at the Jardin Public in Cognac. It’s worth noting that Jean-Louis Aubert is extending his successful tour dubbed "PAFINI." An excellent opportunity to revisit the extensive catalog of Aubert’s hits, from iconic songs that have shaped multiple generations to his latest offerings.
Craving more? The festival also confirms performances by Ben Harper & The Innocent Criminals, the American artist Curtis Harding, rising star Théo Charaf, the iconic Vanessa Paradis, and Nectar Woode, hailed as one of the freshest voices in British soul and jazz.
There’s no doubt that the 2026 lineup at the Cognac Blues Passions Festival will delight music fans far and wide. Stay tuned for the full lineup announcement, and visit the official Cognac Blues Passions website for more details and to book your tickets.
