Rock en Seine, which has been closing out the Paris festival season since 2003, returns in 2026 for its 23rd edition with one of its strongest line-ups in years. After an edition in 2025 that leaned heavily toward rap and electronic music, this year's bill swings decisively back toward guitars, and we are certainly not complaining.
There is no shortage of reasons to make the trip to the Domaine national de Saint-Cloud. Among the artists we are particularly looking forward to are Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, The Cure, Wilco, Sparks, The Black Keys, Franz Ferdinand, Lambrini Girls, Biffy Clyro, Kurt Vile, Peaches, Deftones, Turnstile, Mannequin Pussy, Amyl and the Sniffers, Novelists, Interpol, Slowdive, Wolf Alice, Black Country, New Road, Ecca Vandal or Mogwai. That barely scratches the surface of a bill that offers compelling discoveries alongside established names across all five days.
The festival takes place from August 26th to 30th at the Domaine national de Saint-Cloud.
