Despite the new heatwave sweeping across France, a host of major artists are sure to raise the temperature even further for the 150,000 attendees of the 42nd edition of the Francofolies. Aya Nakamura, Orelsan, Mika or the band Feu ! Chatterton, among others, will be performing in La Rochelle from July 10 to 14, 2026. Against a backdrop of intense summer heat, no major changes are on the agenda for the festival organizers, who remain in close contact with local authorities.
