Le Son de la Nuit Festival
Rock festival in Auch, heir to the mythical club La Nuit
About Son de la Nuit
Le Son de la Nuit: Rock Lives Again in Gascony
The Le Son de la Nuit Festival was born from the desire to reconnect with the rock history of the Gers region. In the 1980s-90s, the nightclub La Nuit in Duran was a major hub for regional rock, hosting concerts and DJ sets in a high-energy atmosphere, until its destruction by fire.
A Growing Festival
After successful initial editions in Duran in 2022 and 2023, and then in Auch in 2024, the festival has established itself as a major rock event in the Gers. The parc d'Endoumingue in Auch provides an ideal setting for two evenings of open-air concerts.
Rock Lineup
The lineup features a strong selection of French and international rock: Elmer Food Beat, No One Is Innocent, La Ruda, and Les Sheriff have been among the headliners. The festival champions authentic and energetic rock, true to the spirit of La Nuit.
Festive Atmosphere
Le Son de la Nuit focuses on a festive and friendly atmosphere, with DJ sets between concerts, quality food stalls, and a well-stocked bar.
Son de la Nuit — edition 2026
The 5th edition of the Le Son de la Nuit festival takes place on Friday, September 11 and Saturday, September 12, 2026, at Endoumingue park, in Auch (Gers). Two rock evenings featuring punk legends (Buzzcocks, Tagada Jones), French song icons (Les Innocents), and rock gems (Silmarils, Les Croquants, Bad Bad Bird), heirs to the spirit of the mythical club La Nuit.
Le Son de la Nuit 2026 — 5th edition
Since 2022, the Le Son de la Nuit festival has brought rock to the gates of Auch. For its 5th edition, on September 11 and 12, 2026, it once again takes over Endoumingue park with a program that blends punk-rock, French song, and fusion, in the spirit of the club La Nuit, whose heritage it perpetuates.
The program alternates between British and French punk headliners, French pop-rock figures, and rising bands. Between sets, La Nuit's DJs set the mood and extend the evenings late into the night.
