Les Hivernales du Déjazet, a family-friendly festival of performances, arrives in Paris: the lineup

Starting from February 13, 2026, the Théâtre Déjazet will host the inaugural Hivernales du Déjazet, a brand-new Parisian festival celebrating a blend of music, theater, and poetry centered around the unique world of artist Yanowski. Over more than two months, six musical performances—mixing fairy tales, musical comedy, and narrative concerts—will take place in this historic venue on Boulevard du Temple. An event not to be missed for fans of storytelling through music, dreamlike atmospheres, and artistic ventures that venture off the beaten path.

Les Hivernales du Déjazet invite audiences on an artistic journey through six unique productions conceived or starring Yanowski, a singer, poet, and playwright whose work blends music hall, fantastical storytelling, and classical music. Designed to appeal to a wide range of viewers—from children aged 5 and up to adults eager to experience something extraordinary—the festival features over 112 performances scheduled from February 13 to April 26, 2026.

Now Playing: Musical Comedy, Fairy Tales, and Musical Storytelling
