Every September, electro music fans gather in Paris to dance to the beats sung by the Techno Parade floats. After a successful edition in 2023, the world's biggest electronic music event will not be returning to Paris in 2024.
In a message published on social networks, the organizers of the electro event announced the cancellation of this 2024 edition due to the Olympics. "The organization of the Olympic Games has created considerable production and logistical constraints for the preparation of the event. In addition to numerous delays and extended deadlines, the organization of the Olympics has made it impossible to access our assembly site. Under these conditions, we are unable to guarantee the Techno Parade this year", explain the organizers.
The organizers of the Paris Techno Parade are therefore inviting regulars to join them in 2025.
Last year, lovers of electro music took to the streets of Paris on September 23, 2023 for a historic edition. And with good reason: the Techno Parade celebrated its 25th anniversary. This anniversary edition also marked 25 years of struggle and commitment to the preservation of electronic music culture.
Officially launched in France in 1998 by Technopol, the Techno Parade was created with the support of former French Minister of Culture Jack Lang, on the model of Berlin's " Love Parade ", inaugurated less than 10 years earlier. In its 25 years of existence, the Techno Parade has attracted over 7 million fans from all over France and neighboring countries to dance to the sound of electro music.
In 2023, the huge electro parade set off from Place de la Bastille to Place de la Nation, via Boulevard des Filles du Calvaire, Place de la République and Boulevard Voltaire.
During this anniversary edition, the Techno Parade organizers also took the opportunity to reiterate their numerous demands, including the inclusion of electronic music in France's cultural heritage, fair treatment for those involved in electronic music, and the creation of reception areas for electronic music events and festivals.
So, are you ready to return to the Techno Parade floats and dance the streets of Paris to the rhythm of house, electro and hardcore sounds? See you in 2025 for another Techno Parade in Paris.
