Free open-air music festival at the Théâtre de la Nature in Narbonne-Plage
ELIZIK' is a free music festival that takes place every summer at the Théâtre de la Nature in Narbonne-Plage. For five evenings in July, this 2,700-seat open-air venue hosts renowned artists in an eclectic program blending French variety, classical music, jazz, and world music. Created by the City of Narbonne, the festival celebrates its 10th edition in 2025 and is committed to an eco-responsible approach with the elimination of diesel generators and the removal of 90% of plastic bottles.
The Théâtre de la Nature in Narbonne-Plage offers an exceptional setting for the ELIZIK' festival. This open-air amphitheater, nestled in the heart of the seaside resort, can accommodate up to 2,700 spectators under the Mediterranean stars. Every evening in July, music lovers gather in this magical place for concerts that begin at 9:30 PM, carried by the sea breeze and the summer atmosphere of the Narbonne coast.
ELIZIK' stands out for the diversity of its programming, which boldly and sensitively brings musical genres into dialogue. Over the years, the festival has hosted artists as varied as Stephan Eicher, Nathalie Dessay, the Gipsy Kings, Stacey Kent, Roberto Alagna, Chimène Badi, and Natasha St-Pier. The artistic direction, sponsored by conductor Daniel Tosi, ensures a unique musical experience each evening, blending great classics from the repertoire, flamboyant tributes, and new discoveries.
One of ELIZIK''s strengths lies in its complete freeness. The five evenings of the festival are accessible to everyone, upon simple reservation via the City of Narbonne website or at partner pickup points (Narbonne-Plage town hall, Cultura Narbonne). This open access policy democratizes quality music and brings together a broad, intergenerational audience, from families to seasoned music lovers.
ELIZIK' is resolutely committed to an exemplary environmental approach. The festival has eliminated diesel generators in favor of a battery system, converted all concert lighting to LED, and eliminated 90% of plastic bottles through the use of eco-cups and water fountains. This ecological transition makes ELIZIK' a model of eco-responsible festivals on the Mediterranean coast.
ELIZIK' returns in July 2026 for its 11th edition at the Théâtre de la Nature in Narbonne-Plage. The festival will offer five evenings of free open-air concerts. Program and exact dates to be confirmed.
