On August 23, 2025, Adriatique will debut their visionary concept “X” at the historic Théâtre Antique d’Orange in France. The Swiss duo will be joined by a heavyweight line-up: John Summit, bringing his high-energy house beyond the festival mainstage; Alex Wann, the fast-rising name behind groove-heavy anthems; and Marino Canal, a long-time collaborator known for his deep and emotional techno.
A Landmark Venue
The Théâtre Antique d’Orange, a UNESCO World Heritage site built in the 1st century AD, has become a rare stage for electronic music, following iconic performances by the likes of Solomun and Afterlife. Hosting X here is both symbolic and bold—merging ancient history with cutting-edge sound.
The X Vision
Since its inception, X has evolved into Adriatique’s most ambitious project, blurring sonic and geographic borders. Each edition is crafted as a narrative-driven journey rather than a standard DJ set, with tension, release, and cinematic soundscapes defining the experience. The Orange debut marks the concept’s expansion to one of Europe’s most unique cultural landmarks.
Adriatique’s Journey
With more than a decade of shaping the global melodic techno sound, Adriatique have built a reputation for patient, immersive sets and refined storytelling. From founding their Siamese label to becoming core members of Afterlife, the duo continue to push the boundaries of electronic music performance.

The night promises a rare balance: Summit’s anthems, Wann’s dancefloor grooves, and Canal’s deep textures, all anchored by Adriatique’s signature tension and cinematic flow. More than a showcase, X in Orange is a statement—that Adriatique’s vision is still expanding, and their strongest chapters are still ahead.
