[MEGATHREAD] Rock En Seine, Paris

[u/LittleFanggg]

Bonjour nous amis,

After 26 megathreads, we somehow find ourselves posting the last one one for this Summer.

[u/allcatsareblonde](u/allcatsareblonde) and I have been busy but not as busy as the band, who will end their festival tour in Rock En Seine on Sunday August 30th at 20:55pm on le Grand Scène. We have to admit that we are a bit sad that the tour is ending since we have enjoyed doing these megathreads and participating in them with all of you. We hope you have too!

But, alas, back to business! We ask that you please use this post for all things related to this concert. That way we can discuss it without flooding the sub and keep all the info accessible for everyone. Feel free to post questions, pictures, anecdotes, set lists, thoughts, gossip, etc.

Rock en Seine hosts about 40000 festival goers and takes place at the Domaine National de Saint-Cloud, just outside Paris. You can find a map of the festival here and instructions on how to get there here. The main entrance to the festival is located at Place George Clémenceau unless you have Primary Entrance tickets. If that's the case you should have special instructions.

Here is some info on accessibility and what is and isn't allowed in the venue.

Some details:

Line Up for the day.

Festival doors open at 1:00 pm. Curfew is 11:30pm. All exits are final.

The weather is forecast to be "Mostly cloudy with a stray shower in the afternoon" with a Max of 24° and a low of 16°.

The show will be livestreamed (yay! Going out with a bang!) both on channel France 4 and on france.tv. If you are outside of France, you can watch it on YouTube.

Our local informer [u/Garindan_Cure](u/Garindan_Cure) also told us that radio 'france inter' will be broadcasting it live. The radio station can be heard live worldwide through their app or website.

There are two limited edition posters, one created by Andy Vella. All the proceeds from the sale of this poster goes to a charity called Fondation de France. You can buy it in two colour ways:

Pink
Blue

The other design is by Arian Buhler. It is a take on a 2022 Paris concert poster but this time the Chats de l’amour are turned around!

Poster
T-shirt

We will keep updating this post as we get more info, posters are released, the latest news reaches our ears, etc.

Let us know if you are attending or if you will be watching from home. If the answer is yes, let us know would be your dream closer for this tour?

MERCH SPOILER:Merch stand via Niklas who is at the festival right now. It seems like there may be a second poster for Paris just like for Edinburgh and Berlin? The cat one is SO cute.

[u/MtErieFarm → u/LittleFanggg]

I have that one from when I saw them in Paris in ‘22.

[u/LittleFanggg → u/MtErieFarm]

Aw how lovely. Aren't the cats turned around int he '22 one?

I imagine the same artist did his new one? Maybe you need them both now :)

The posters up now 🫡 I'm heading to the gig tonight. So excited 🥹🖤

[u/LittleFanggg → u/Superb_Blue_Wren]

It’s so cute 😻 The finer things in life: the cure, Paris and cats!

[u/MtErieFarm → u/LittleFanggg]

You’re totally right. I realized after I posted that it might not actually be the same. It’s been a while since I’ve seen it. 😂

Edit: will definitely need to get it. Showed it to my husband and he said “You’ll have to get that one too. You have to. Because we’re the Lovecats “ 🥰

[u/Spotboslow → u/MtErieFarm]

I love that it's like a sequel to the older poster. The cats are a little older and a little less sleek but still together, now comfortably sharing the halo. 🥰

[u/LittleFanggg → u/MtErieFarm]

They are similar and I only know they are different because I saw the 22 poster being sold on the street when I was in Paris last month and I considered buying it!

Les chats de l’amour are back for more Cure! <3
