MOKO Festival

MOKO Festival: Free Electro and Rock by Toulon's Roadstead

In just a few editions, the MOKO Festival has become the unmissable event for contemporary music lovers on the Var coast. The spiritual successor to the mythical Rockorama, this free festival has won over a loyal and enthusiastic audience by focusing on an eclectic and ambitious lineup in one of the most breathtaking settings on the Mediterranean.

The Tour Royale: An Extraordinary Stage

Each year, the festival takes over the Tour Royale and the Mitre peninsula in Toulon, an exceptional heritage site overlooking the roadstead. Built in the early 16th century by order of Louis XII, this massive circular tower is one of the city's defensive symbols. Transformed into a festival stage, it offers a 180-degree panorama of Toulon's roadstead, the Îles d'Or, and the Massif des Maures hills: a natural backdrop impossible to match for enjoying music with your feet in the grass facing the sea.

An Electro-Rock Lineup for All Tastes

The MOKO Festival boasts a resolutely diverse lineup, refusing to be confined to a single musical genre. Electro, rock, indie, hip-hop, alternative pop, and sound experiments follow one another on the open-air stages, offering a complete musical journey over several days. The festival plays the card of mixing generations and styles, bringing together established artists and new faces from the French and international scene.

The lineup is generally structured around a main stage hosting headliners in the evening and one or more secondary stages offering discoveries and DJ sets during the day. The festive and relaxed atmosphere is characteristic of the MOKO spirit: quality live music, free access, and conviviality are paramount.

Free and Accessible: The MOKO Promise

The festival's total freeness is its hallmark and its strongest commitment to the Toulon public. In an increasingly expensive festival landscape, MOKO makes the radical choice of accessibility: no tickets to buy, no wristbands to get. Everyone can come, stay as long as they wish, and come back the next day. This commitment is made possible by the support of local authorities and private partners, demonstrating Toulon's political will to keep culture alive for everyone.

The Legacy of Rockorama

The MOKO Festival carries the DNA of Rockorama, a rock festival that marked generations of Toulon residents with its bold programming and independent festive spirit. By inheriting this tradition while reinventing itself, MOKO has built its own identity, driven by a resolutely contemporary electro-rock lineup while paying homage to the raw energy that made its predecessor strong.
