For several summers now, Carcassonne has played host to a host of artists, much to the delight of local residents. Theater, circus, dance, classical music and concerts... There's something for everyone. The same goes for styles, since every year the Carcassonne Festival satisfies lovers of rock, but also of French variety and hip-hop.
And this new edition, to be unveiled in July 2025, is no exception to the rule. The proof is in the unveiling of the first names in the 2025 program , which once again promises to be a great one at the Théâtre Jean-Deschamps, located in the beautiful city of Carcassonne!
So, what program awaits you next summer in the south of France? The spotlight will be on metal, with the exceptional appearance of Gojira! The famous French metal band, originally from the Landes region of France, will be in Carcassonne on Tuesday, July 29, 2025 to play their powerful songs.
We recall that Gojira caused a sensation in July 2024 during the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics by performing the song "Ah! Ça ira!". Since then, many have been waiting for a tour announcement. It's now a done deal! The Duplantier brothers and their bandmates will be touring France in 2025, with a one-off concert scheduled for theAccor Arena in Paris in autumn 2025. For the rest of the year, Gojira will be making stops in Lyon, Toulouse, Bordeaux, Nice and Marseille, not forgetting Carcassonne.
Please note that this exceptional Gojira date, to be experienced in the lovely setting of the Théâtre Jean-Deschamps in Carcassonne, will be the first of its French tour. Also, don't miss the pre-sale available from Thursday September 26 at 10am on the official Carcassonne festival website. The general on-sale date is Friday September 27 at 10am.
For the rest of the program, stay tuned! In 2024, the Carcassonne festival welcomed artists and groups as varied as Scorpions, Greta Van Fleet, Shaka Ponk, Ludovico Einaudi, Mika, Calogero, Toto, Bigflo & Oli, Sting, Status Quo, IAM and Grand Corps Malade.
