The history of the Plage Électro festival
Every summer since 2006, the Palais des Festivals et des Congrès in Cannes has been the venue for the world-famous electronic music festival. It’s the Plages Électro festival.

That hasn’t changed since. A line-up of DJs and internationally-renowned artists will perform on the two stages set aside for the occasion.
Important dates
Acknowledged as France’s biggest beach party, Plages Electro is one of the biggest and best-attended festivals in France. More than 40,000 beachgoers are expected to take part in the event, on several meters of fine sand and under layers of dazzling sunshine. The constantly splashing waves add their charm to the place, and the quality of the electronic music provided for the occasion promises hyper-ambient evenings. The site’s location is a great asset, offering the chance to swim in the Mediterranean and explore the city of Cannes with its many lively streets.
