Mental Health Month: rapper Ichon gives a free concert at Paris City Hall

Any plans for Tuesday, April 1, 2025? An iconic venue, an essential subject, a magnetic artist ... Ichon takes over the majestic Salle des fêtes at Paris' Hôtel de Ville for a concert that's 100% free of charge, by reservation only. A performance that will conclude an event dedicated to mental health (as part of Mental Health Month), because words and music can heal as much as speeches.

Before the show, round tables and meetings will be held from 4:30 pm to 9 pm. The aim? To break down taboos and open up dialogue on the challenges of mental health at all ages, and to highlight the positive initiatives taken by numerous Parisian players.

Then Ichon takes to the stage at 7.30pm! With his raw rap and open-hearted lyrics, the artist has turned words into therapy. From Pour de vrai (2019) to Born To Be Blue (2025), he transforms sorrow and reflection into urban poetry. In this setting steeped in history, the moment promises to be powerful, vibrant and unique.
