Sonora Halloween XXL (Bordeaux, France) 2025

As the autumn fog begins to settle over Bordeaux, an electrifying ritual returns to awaken the night: Sonora Halloween XXL 2025. This isn’t just another party, it’s the largest indoor rave experience in southwest France, taking place on October 31 and November 1 at the Parc des Expositions de Bordeaux, a venue that transforms into a gothic sanctuary of strobe-lit madness for two nights of unrelenting energy.

This year’s edition brings a next-level production setup, spanning two colossal hangars, 12,000m² and 8,000m², with dual stages, jaw-dropping 360° LED monoliths, and over 400m² of high-definition LED screens, half of which are integrated directly into the dancefloor. Every light pulse and visual explosion is synced to the music, amplifying a sonic voyage through techno, hard techno, trance, and melodic techno that fully embraces the spirit of Halloween. Expect a custom A/V show, unmatched in scale and intensity.

The Friday lineup (October 31) centers around the brooding power of I Hate Models’ “Face II Face” A/V show, with support from Basswell, Holy Priest, Teho, Zorza, Odymel, and Kas:st, among others. Saturday (November 1) keeps the pace unrelenting, with a stacked roster including Astrix, Trym, Vladimir Cauchemar, Hysta, Rivo, and Eargasm God, combining raw power with futuristic flair.

Last year saw thousands fill the hangars shoulder to shoulder, lost in a storm of lasers, sound, and euphoria. In 2025, the music festival is set to push even further. The immersive production will be enhanced with 14 LED monoliths projecting visuals in all directions, while a massive sound system and immersive lighting design ensure that every moment hits with full force.

Tickets are moving fast: general passes start at €47.70, two-day options from €85.00, and VIP packages from €99.00. There’s also a special “4-for-3” group offer at €148.50. All tickets are available via Shotgun with a secure resale system. Please note that, this is a strictly 18+ event, and no re-entry is permitted once you exit the venue.

Whether you’re drawn by the ferocity of the hard techno drop, the psychedelic swirl of trance, or the hypnotic pull of melodic layers, Sonora Halloween XXL is where your darker rave instincts come to life. Don’t just celebrate Halloween. Become it.
