Cercle is proud to unveil the full lineup for the third edition of Cercle Festival at the National Air and Space Museum of France, now spanning three days, May 22–24, 2026. Set against the museum’s legendary aircraft and rockets, this edition promises an unprecedented fusion of cultural heritage, cutting-edge electronic music, and audiovisual artistry.

Following the sold-out 2024 edition, which gathered attendees from over 70 countries, Cercle Festival returns to the tarmac of Le Bourget with a carefully curated lineup balancing world-renowned pioneers and emerging talents, reaffirming Cercle’s role as a global leader in revolutionary music experiences.

Once again, the National Air and Space Museum of France will become the stage for Cercle’s signature fusion of sound, light and emotion. As the world’s oldest aviation museum, the monumental architecture and legendary tarmac — home to the A380, the Ariane 5 rocket and two Concorde aircrafts — provides the perfect backdrop for Cercle’s creative vision.

Each of the festival’s three stages will offer a distinct experience: the Ariane Stage at the foot of the rocket, the A380 Stage beneath the world’s largest passenger aircraft, and the Concorde Stage, nestled between the two supersonic icons.

The 2026 edition brings together a diverse selection of international artists whose performances will explore the balance between innovation and emotion.

“I’m so thrilled to share the Cercle Festival 2026 lineup! Come 2026, we’ll gather 44 artists from 19 different countries across three full days of electronic music, covering a lot of different genres from afro house and techno to melodic techno, tech house, house, electronica, and more.”shares Derek Barbolla, Founder and Creative Director of Cercle.“Working alongside my dear colleagues Clément Meyere and Claire Miller, we made it a priority to showcase French talent on this edition, featuring standout artists like Anetha, Enfant Sauvage, Thylacine, Marten Lou, and Etienne de Crécy. I’m so grateful to all the artists and their teams for trusting us, and I can’t wait to welcome you all on board in just a few months.”

Tickets are available here.
