Les Plages Electroniques (Cannes, France) 2027

Les Plages Electroniques returns to the beach of the Palais des Festivals in Cannes from 6 to 8 August 2027, running what the organisers call the largest beach party in France: three days, six stages and 66,000 festivalgoers with their feet in the sand on the Croisette. The festival marked 20 years in 2026 and has turned a stretch of the French Riviera’s most famous promenade into an annual fixture of the European summer.

The 2027 bill is already deep. DJ Snake, Marshmello and Martin Garrix cover the main stage billing, with Amelie Lens, Anetha, Nico Moreno, Clara Cuve, Maceo Plex, Mind Against, Mathame, Interplanetary Criminal, Kapote of Toy Tonics, MoBlack, Marina Trench, Miley Serious, Malugi, Mosimann and Bunt also confirmed across the stages, alongside collective takeovers from Twerkistan, Les Copains d’Abord and Prizme and winners of the Riffx new artist competition.

All inclusive packages combining festival tickets, accommodation and transport are sold through the festival’s own team, with a hotel and bus option for anyone travelling from elsewhere in France. Regular passes were reported close to selling out at the time of writing. Cannes has its own station on the Marseille to Nice line and Nice airport is 30 minutes away. Sunsets over the sea from a dancefloor on the sand make this a music festival with few equivalents.
