Pic'Arts Festival — Contemporary music at the foot of the Septmonts keep

26th Edition: Feet in the Sand at Axo'Plage

For its 26th edition, the Pic'Arts Festival opens a new chapter in its history. After 25 years at the foot of the Septmonts keep, the festival moves on August 23 and 24, 2024 to Axo'Plage, the leisure center located on the shores of the Monampteuil lake, between Laon and Soissons. This special edition, named "Les pieds dans l'sable" (Feet in the Sand), marks the rebirth of Pic'Arts in a new setting offering a beach, green spaces, and leisure facilities.

The capacity is deliberately limited to 6,000 visitors over the two days. The park is privatized for the occasion and opens its doors from 12:00 PM each day. Free camping is available for festival-goers.

On Friday, August 23, Zaoui opens the proceedings, followed by Taïro and his reggae vibes, the charismatic Cali, and 47 Ter, who closes the first evening with their festive rap. On Saturday, August 24, Loïs Verne kicks off the day, Debout sur le Zinc follows with their rock fanfare, Hervé delivers an offbeat pop set, Faada Freddy captivates the audience with his exceptional voice, and Alee & Mourad Musset complete the lineup.

This edition, supported by the Hauts-de-France Region, confirms the festival's ability to reinvent itself while preserving its family and eclectic identity.
