Festival Days Off 2026 in Paris: full lineup announced and ticket sales now open

Founded in 2010, the Days Off Festival is gearing up to celebrate its 16th edition from June 27 to July 5, 2026 in Paris. True to its innovative spirit, the Days Off Festival once again aims to bring together renowned figures from rock, hip-hop, and contemporary music scenes to offer festival-goers daring and exciting new performances.

Following previous editions that have featured such illustrious artists as Antony & The Johnsons, Damien Rice, Beck, Rufus Wainwright, Cat Power, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Eels, and more recently Sigur Rós, Thylacine, Interpol, Ben Howard, and Kevin Morby, the Festival Days Off is back with a lineup that promises to once again be diverse and exciting. The festival runs for nine days at both the Philharmonie de Paris and the Cité de la Musique, from June 27 to July 5, 2026.

So, what can you expect this year? Who will make your heart race during this 16th edition of the festival? This summer, get ready to experience Tomora. This exciting project brings together Norwegian singer Aurora and UK musician Tom Rowlands of The Chemical Brothers. Their debut album, titled "Come Closer," is set to captivate audiences. Fans will have the chance to see it performed live for the first time at Days Off on July 1, 2026 — a one-of-a-kind concert in Paris.

After a 13-year hiatus, Babyshambles will make their comeback on stage at this 16th edition of Days Off! The iconic British rock band, led by Peter Doherty, will likely take the opportunity to perform some of their timeless hits at the Philharmonie de Paris, including "The Delivery", "You Talk", and "Killamangiro".

Other artists lined up for the 2026 Days Off festival? Alela Diane, the American folk singer who gained recognition in 2006 with her debut album "The Pirate's Gospel", as well as Tamino, the acclaimed Belgian singer-songwriter and musician of Egyptian descent.

Also featured is Spanish guitarist Yerai Cortés, hailed as the rising star of contemporary flamenco. The evening wouldn’t be complete without the Night of Raï, set for July 1st at the Cité de la Musique, and a women-led hip-hop night starring Uzi Freyja and Juste Shani.

What about tickets going on sale? Sales for all these concerts will begin on Tuesday, March 10th at noon.
