Cercle has officially revealed the full lineup for the third edition of Cercle Festival, returning May 22–24, 2026, at the National Air and Space Museum of France—a location that has become synonymous with the brand’s visionary fusion of culture, architecture, and electronic music.
Following the sold-out success of the 2024 edition, which gathered fans from more than 70 countries, Cercle Festival 2026 marks the series’ most expansive edition to date, extending across three full days of performances beneath iconic aircrafts, rockets, and aviation history.
A Historic Museum Reimagined Through Sound & Light
The world’s oldest aviation museum will once again transform into an immersive playground for electronic music. The monumental tarmac of Le Bourget—home to the A380, Ariane 5 rocket, and two Concorde aircrafts—offers a setting unlike anything else in the global festival circuit.
Each of the three stages will deliver its own sensory universe:
-
Ariane Stage — towering beneath the legendary rocket
-
A380 Stage — unfolding under the shadow of the world’s largest passenger jet
-
Concorde Stage — a cinematic corridor between the two supersonic icons
This alignment of heritage, futurism, and artistic direction remains central to why Cercle stands as one of the most influential experiential formats in electronic music today.
