The 12th edition of this festival organized by the Paris town hall and Fnac will take place from 28th - 30th June 2023, on the square in front of Paris City Hall.

Like Solidays or Rock en Seine, Fnac Live is causing a sensation among young and old music lovers and stands out by offering free and open entry.

This festival will be accessible to all and specific access for people with disabilities will be set up at 31 rue de Rivoli.

Originally linked to Paris Plages, Fnac Independances (its original name) aimed to open the event on the banks of the Seine in a good atmosphere with a demonstration of young talents.

From 2008, as the popularity of the event grew, it went from hundreds of passers-by to thousands of festival-goers. From then on, the Paris town hall decided to move the event to the square in front of the town hall.

Fnac INDEPENDENCES became Fnac Live Paris in 2011 and extends over three days during which different musical genres meet. 

Like every year, Fnac Live will offer from 18 p.m. various concerts in front of the town hall but this June, in addition to the open-air concerts, we will be able to attend acoustic sets in one of the lounges of the city ​​Hall. Only the six hundred people who have reserved their tickets in Fnac stores (before June 27) will have access. 

Why should we go there?
This festival offers a varied program for all tastes, with young talents or rock, jazz, pop, rap and electro stars, to the delight of an audience ready to discover new styles of music.

This year the programming will be eclectic as always.

In front of the hotel the already iconic group Polo & Pan will perform on Wednesday at 23 p.m., Benjamin Biolay on Thursday at 20:15 p.m. and Disiz on Friday at 21:30 p.m.

Note also that a concert by Zaho de Sagazan will take place in one of the town hall lounges on Thursday at 21:05 p.m. (invitation to be collected from Fnac).

We bet they will create an incredible atmosphere and make these three days a memorable moment for everyone!
