Music events Métropole lilloise

Since its inception, the NAME Festival has never ceased to reinvent itself and surprise us. A major event for electro-music fans, the festival takes over unusual venues (remnants, industrial wastelands...) and thrills its thousands of spectators to the sounds of internationally renowned artists and young emerging musicians. The NAME Festival is a talent scout and incubator, and organizes meetings and master classes. On the strength of its reputation, the festival has become an itinerant one, organizing events all over France.

The Clef de Soleil festival brings classical music to Lille all summer long, with a rich and varied program. Soloists, quartets and recitalists with original repertoires delight your ears by sharing their passion through dozens of performances featuring the most traditional and famous works of classical music, as well as a number of more personal and intimate creations. Each edition of this festival is a great opportunity to discover classical music from a new angle!

Les Paradis artificiels is THE rap and urban festival of the Lille region, and more widely of northern France. Each year, over 20,000 participants gather (some editions draw close to 40,000) to enjoy the sounds of some 50 artists from all musical horizons, over the course of an entire week. French rap, Swedish DJs, American rock, African vocals and much more... make up the line-up for this eclectic event. A not-to-be-missed event!

In January 2019, La Cave aux Poètes created We Loft Music on the premise that rhyming music and heritage is far from impossible! The result is a unique traveling urban festival that brings music from all horizons to some of the most atypical venues in the Metropole. From La Piscine to the Protestant temple, via the Villa Cavrois and the former Banque de France, the 4 editions of this festival of astonishing concerts have proved that breaking codes works! As for where the^5th edition of the We Loft Music Festival will take place, the suspense is still there..
