Musical festivals in france in 2024: who is playing and when

MAKE SURE TO ADD THESE DATES TO YOUR DIARY If this year is anything to go by, then 2024 will be a great year for live music festivals in France. _The Connexion_ has chosen a selection and we

suggest as always that you check with organisers nearer the time that nothing has changed. OCEAN FEST Start the year on a high at Ocean Fest on January 6 at the Zénith de Nantes stadium.

While the festival is focused around environmental issues and the protection of the oceans in order to collect donations for different causes, they do not hold back when it comes to music.

This year will see the likes of Petit Biscuit, Ofenbach and Ibrahim Maalouf performing. READ MORE: INTERVIEW WITH IBRAHIM MAALOUF: ‘I COMPOSE WHAT COMES FROM MY HEART’ PRINTEMPS DE BOURGES
