Who will succeed Marine, the big winner of Star Academy season 12? For the time being, the suspense remains intact. But the new candidates are determined to outdo themselves to win this 2026 edition of Star Academy and achieve the same success as the artist from Pas-de-Calais.

Good news for dedicated fans! As the new season kicked off last fall, Star Academy has now announced the dates for its upcoming French-speaking tour. What’s on the schedule? A series of shows scheduled across several cities, including Toulouse, Amiens, Tours, Limoges, Montpellier, Rennes, Lyon, Marseille, Lille, Bordeaux, and Nice.

In Paris, music fans can mark their calendars for Friday, April 3, 2026, when the concert will take place at the Accor Arena. Due to overwhelming demand, a second date has been added for Wednesday, May 20, 2026. Note that tickets for the Pre-sale at the Accor Arena are already available. General ticket sales are scheduled to begin on December 17 at noon. Ticket prices range from €60 for Category 2, €70 for Category 1, €85 for the Or level, and €95 for the Prestige option.

Broadcast on TF1, this new edition once again features around fifteen fresh faces, aged 18 to 25, hailing from France, Belgium, and Switzerland. The latest class of Star Academy also benefits from the support of two illustrious mentors: Charlotte Cardin and Ed Sheeran.
