The 2026 Cercle Festival boasted that this year's edition was the biggest in the event's history. For the first time it ran for a full three days and drew around 20,000 attendees a day.
It was unique for another reason too: the Cercle collective is celebrating its 10th anniversary, and the jubilee turned into a monumental show combining music, audiovisual art, space and education.
During the penultimate weekend of May, the grounds of the Musée de l’Air et de l’Espace just outside Paris were transformed into an interplanetary cultural hub. Between Ariane rockets, a Concorde and the giant A380, DJs, astronauts, scientists, Mars exploration experts and thousands of music fans from all over the world came together. This is where the future of entertainment becomes reality.
The festival’s three stages hosted, among others, Eric Prydz, Röyksopp, ARTBAT, Ben Böhmer, Monolink, Michael Bibi and Adriatique.
This historic museum, located at Paris-Le Bourget airport and founded in 1919, is one of the oldest and most prestigious aviation museums in the world. Its collection includes more than 150 aircraft and thousands of unique objects – satellites, rockets, engines, models and works of art – illustrating the history of humanity and its conquest of the skies.
