This week, Aya Nakamura takes over the Stade de France for the first time in her career. For the occasion, the Franco-Malian artist doesn’t do things by halves and plans to reconnect with her fans over three consecutive nights, Friday May 29, Saturday May 30 and Sunday May 31, 2026.

But ahead of them, other artists are set to electrify the legendary Seine-Saint-Denis venue, such as Aya Nakamura!

For the first time in her career, the Franco-Malian singer is putting down roots in this massive arena, a venue that has already hosted a string of legends, from Madonna and Mylène Farmer to Johnny Hallyday, Stromae, The Rolling Stones, and more recently Eminem, Beyoncé, Metallica and U2.

But before seeing Aya Nakamura set the Stade de France alight on Friday 29, Saturday 30 and Sunday 31 May 2026, Île-de-France concertgoers can warm up with a string of opening acts, each night different. So who will have the privilege of opening for Aya Nakamura in Paris on May 29, 30 and 31, 2026? Who has been chosen to steadily raise the temperature? On her social media, Live Nation unveiled the detailed lineup for these "100% Baddies opening acts," featuring notably Emma'a, Feejoke and Shannon on Friday, Denden, Merveille or Miimii KDS on Saturday, and then Juste Shani & Leys and Windiane on Sunday.
