From May 21 to 24, 2026, the Jogging Festival returns indoors to the Halle du Carreau du Temple. The event shines a fresh, playful spotlight on exhibitions, performances, workshops, practices, or projects that sit at the crossroads of the arts and sports.
On the surface, they could not be more different, and yet... The Jogging Festival weaves together art and sport through a unique, offbeat rendezvous, taking place from May 21 to 24, 2026, under the Carreau du Temple Hall in the 3rd arrondissement. Through exhibitions, performances, workshops, innovative sports installations, and participatory events, the many affinities between sporting and artistic practices are showcased over five days in the heart of the capital.
Late May, children and adults alike are invited to discover and take part in dance performances and new, cross-disciplinary performances at the crossroads of the arts. This new, sixth edition of the Jogging Festival gives the capital a real sporting momentum by once again drawing curious attendees to this multidisciplinary festival.
The Carreau du Temple is transforming for the occasion into a hybrid space: visitors can marvel at exhibitions and installations of contemporary art, participate in sport classes inclusifs, discover shows that play with the codes of sport... Each activity aims to be playful, innovative and open to all. Art lovers as well as die-hard athletes come together at this one-of-a-kind festival.
Good to know, the entry is free, but the shows and classes require payment! Discover the highlights and activities of this festival open to everyone:
