Song, rap, electro, rock. Young shoots, confirmed stars. There will be something for everyone in terms of concerts at Paris Paradis, the Parisian festival, which will take place from September 8 to 10 in the Parc de la Villette (Paris 19th century). Here is the precise program of all the artists present.
Friday, September 8
It’s not just rugby in life. Certainly, it will be the opening of the World Cup but the XV of France will play other matches in a few days. On the other hand, it will be the moment or never to enjoy a mild evening – the weather promises it – in the Parc de la Villette with a mixed programme. Forget the lads of the oval ball and come and applaud a romantic rapper who will open the ball: Joe Dwet Filé, star of Haitian music, follower of an R’n’B that makes girls . His album between zouk and hip-hop, where we find duets with Dadju and Tiakola, is one of the most delightful of the summer. His concert at the Accor Arena scheduled for October has been sold out for weeks. Paris Paradis will be the only possibility to see it in the capital.
This Friday night we will celebrate the great return of Silmarils after almost ten years of absence. Between rap and rock, the group, of which “Va y avoir du sport” has become an anthem, is in good shape as on the first day. We are also delighted to welcome The Inspector Cluzoa French duo like no other which is divided between guitars and duck confit. Farmers rockers from the South West whose performances are always tasty.
Another phenomenon not to be missed, the incredible young French Kalika, a creature between manga and Lady Gaga, with caustic texts and mind-blowing productions. One of our big favorites of the season. The dancers will not be left out. They will be able to move on the reggae and sunny rhythms of Patrick present in Paris Paradis before the release of his new album, the Latin atmospheres of the two sisters of Doya, revealed by “The Voice” this year, and finally, to end the evening in style, on the electro bombs of prince of turntables Martin Solveig.
Saturday September 9
Day rich in emotions in Paris Paradis this Saturday. Julien Clerc, one of our newspaper’s favorite artists, will be our guest of honour. He will give a particular concert in more ways than one. This will be the last show of his 2022-2023 tour. And it will be the first in Paris since the sudden disappearance, on August 15, of his brother Gérard Leclerc, who was one of his most loyal fans and would no doubt have come to applaud him.
Emotion also at the idea of welcoming one of the sensations of the season, Zaho of Sagazan. The young singer was high on our 2023 bets when his first album, “The Symphony of Lightning” was about to be released. A record hailed since by all the press and a growing public. The young lady has become a beast of the stage, especially at festivals this summer with her collection of intense songs tinged with electro.
We hope thatEhla borrow the same path. The musician is not only the sister of Clara Luciani. Above all, she is the author of an amazing pop album with soul accents released before the summer, which takes on its full extent in concert. The most curious will also take a listen to the performance of the Moroccan manal, star at home but still unknown to us, who embodies an oriental and modern feminism, and at the show of The Juicea rapper with a fiery temperament.
After Joé Dwèt Filé on Friday evening, French will bring a little sweetness to this explosive evening. The Congolese-born artist, who has just exceeded one billion streams, notably with his sensual hit “Too much to talk”, and whose song “Bolingo” was a small phenomenon on the TikTok network this summer will make the sun shine, expected That day. And Quentin Mosimann will heat up the turntables for a scorching electro finale at nightfall.

Sunday September 10
It’s a Parisian baby. The first time we met Kendji Girac, he had not yet won “The Voice”. Since then, the singer has regularly crossed paths with our newspaper, through successful albums and triumphant tours. So, it is with happiness that we will receive him on this last day of Paris Paradis for his only Parisian concert of the year. A service that should bring together young and old, parents and children.
Teenagers will impatiently await the performance of colorless night. This young man of Vietnamese origin living in Switzerland is one of the surprises of the season and released one of the hits of the summer with “Exceeded”, epic and melancholic pop, whose success is reminiscent of that of Kyo in another era. He will give this Sunday, his last Parisian concert of the year.
Another amazing young shoot of the day, Kerchak, he will bring together rap fans. The barely 19-year-old artist, still a student a few months ago, goes hooded. But this dark side does not prevent him from giving delightful concerts and from filling venues like La Cigale recently without media exposure. Paris Paradis will be an opportunity for him to play in front of a new audience.
Our event has always given pride of place to revelations. Two years ago, the very young Tsew The Kid gave a memorable concert at the festival. He returns to headline Sunday in the wake of his excellent last album, between rap and pop. Hill Rio, she was present at the very first Paris Paradis in 2018 with her explosive group Inuit. She now evolves solo with subtle and poignant songs. His first project, “What will remain of us”, released in March, is one of the most beautiful French records of the year. Another favorite of the season, the young Picard Oete, ultra-charismatic personality who plays with words, sounds and genres. A little brother of Eddy de Pretto, a spiritual son of Freddie Mercury and Christophe.
We programmed it immediately after seeing it a few months ago in the small Hall of Stars. Jane, her, reminded us of Véronique Sanson on her promising first album. In the second, “Karaoké vie” she has fun repeating hits from the 1980s such as “Voyage voyage”, “Les Sunlights des tropics”, “Ella, elle l’a” in delicious versions. We want to hear you sing during his performance.
Paris Paradis will also travel in time with the rockers of the day: the two friends of Ko Ko Mo, an electric and electrifying duo. An ultra-stylish drummer and singer-guitarist whose voice and sound are reminiscent of the great Led Zeppelin elders. A Sunday program in the image of the festival and the Parisian, popular, eclectic and curious.
3-day p: from 52, 50 to 84 euros. One-day p: from 24.50 to 39 euros. Information and reservations on the Paris Paradise website.
