Cercle Festival is set to return to the Le Bourget tarmac with an expanded three-day format from May 22 to May 24, 2026.
After a one-year hiatus, the festival will once again bring together leading names in the techno and house music scenes, performing across multiple stages at the Musée de l’Air et de l’Espace. The event will be framed by the imposing Ariane rocket and an Airbus A380 aircraft.
The initial lineup includes 44 artists, featuring Anetha, Âme b2b Sama’ Abdulhadi, Étienne de Crecy, Funk Tribu, Kerri Chandler, Kölsch, Mind Against, and Sammy Virji.
In a first for the electronic music festival, Cercle will partner with the European Space Agency (ESA) and CNES, the French space agency, to explore the intersection of music and science. This collaboration reflects a growing trend of integrating art and technology to broaden engagement with scientific exploration.
At the heart of the festival, an immersive spatial dome will host a dedicated program combining talks with astronauts and experts, displays of space models, and immersive experiences. The event will open with a recorded message from French astronaut Sophie Adenot, delivered from the International Space Station (ISS) while in zero gravity.
