CALL-OUT ARTIST 2026 :
We have some “scène‑sational” things on the horizon… Are you ready to be entertained the French way from morning to night at Le Festival 2026 this July?
Dazzling performances, magnifique acts, and spectacles of culture and music will light up our Entertainment Program this year. A glittering curation of beloved Le Festival favourites returns, with the iconic CanCan, the charm of French chanson, the warmth of Polynesian dancers and the colourful presence of our roving performers who will wander, cycle and swirl through the park to bring rhythm, character and a touch of joie de vivre to your festival experience.
And 2026 brings its own sparkle, with music and movement drifting through the park from morning to late afternoon. You might catch the swing of The Django Collective floating through the air or feel the joyful burst of Rubatuba as they appear around a corner. A little further on, the elegance of Jardin d’Hiver blends with the warmth of Heillani dancers, while DJ Orelee threads his energy through the weekend like a heartbeat. From quiet moments of meditation to playful quizzes, films, kids activities and creative surprises, the program is shaped so that everyone can find a moment to join in, whether you are wandering, watching or stepping into the fun yourself.
We CanCan not wait to share everything we have up our stripy sleeves for a French fête none of us will forget.
