After two successive cancellations due to the health crisis, Solidays is preparing its big comeback. Eddy de Pretto, Rilès, Niska and Gaël Faye: the festival is bringing back some choice catches to complete its June 24-26 program, as the organizers revealed on Tuesday. Eddy de Pretto rocked the Bataclan in Paris for several evenings last fall with a scenic transposition of his disc To all the bastards.
To get an idea of the temperature of Gaël Faye’s show, just take a look at his clip, Boomer, filmed during his visit to the Zénith de Paris last winter. For the new sensitive pop, Yseult or November Ultra are also in the game.
A beautiful poster for the 2022 edition
Rap will be adorned with beautiful colors, between the cutting edge of Gazo, the partygoers of 47TER or the unclassifiable Sopico, between hip-hop and rock guitar. For the groups to follow, there will be the classy soul of the Black Pumas or the sharp rock of The Murder Capital. The festivals are also an opportunity to discover nuggets, including Gargäntua with his provocative texts. These main new names complete a poster that already includes Orelsan, Damso, Justice, the Black Eyed Peas, -M-, PLK, Suzane and even Feu! Chatterton for this event scheduled at the Paris-Longchamp racecourse, to the west of the capital.
Solidays is not a contemporary music festival like the others, since it funds the action plans of the Solidarité Sida association, which will celebrate its 30th anniversary in 2022. The festival has been canceled in its usual format two years in a row due to the health crisis. Last summer, a free event for caregivers and their companions, however, brought together 12,000 spectators. In 2019, over three days, Solidays gathered 228,000 spectators.
