Other than The Offspring I haven't seen any of the top 3 lines and want to see all of them next year. Pulp isn't that popular outside the U.K, but Maneskin is ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has jumped right to the top of my August festival shortlist. When does this festival usually sell out? daily tickets don't sell out too quickly. But 2 days, 3 days and mostly 4 days can sold out quite early.. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaboom Boxer Posted November 29, 2023 Report Share Posted November 29, 2023 Is this a camping festival or nah? Would love to hear some experiences from people that have been to previous editions of the festival so I can get a feel for what it’s like.

I don't dislike Maneskin, I just thought Pulp seemed more likely with the 'vibe' of the festival if that makes them sense. Them headlining WOW in Sweden and Oya around the same time made me think they'd have turned up here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to hear some experiences from people that have been to previous editions of the festival so I can get a feel for what it’s like. It's not a camping festival. Went this year and really enjoyed it. Rented an airbnb near Parc des Princes, which was about a 40min walk, so not too bad, and even less with busses. The setup of the festival is basically a long alley with 4 outdoor stages, and one small indoor one. The main problem with this sort of setup is that a lot of people go to a concert to the main stage, then right to the second stage. This means that there are mostly no "big clashes", but the alley being not extremely large, this means that it feels very crowded in there between concerts. Other than that, people are nice, sound is mostly good (I am going to ignore the sound issues during the Strokes as I think this is a bit of a common theme for them), food is good (plenty of very good options). Drinks are expensive though, which is to be expected in Paris. Also good thing is that parking in Paris is free in August in certain areas of the town, which makes the trip even less expensive if you're planning to get there by car.

ilovelanegan Posted November 29, 2023 Report Share Posted November 29, 2023 We're in Paris for our summer trip next August and took a punt on a black Friday Eurostar sale / hotel to include the Sunday, just in case the lineup was decent. Have to say that punt has paid off pretty spectacularly 😍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to hear some experiences from people that have been to previous editions of the festival so I can get a feel for what it’s like. Went this year and really enjoyed it. Seamless getting into the festival & collecting wristbands etc. No queues at the bars / food stalls, plenty of places to sit down and loads of trees for shade (although it was fairly overcast for the full weekend this year). Only small gripe was the set times & walks between stages, which resulted in us missing a song or two of some of the "bigger" acts if they were on back to back. Other than that it was class Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaboom Boxer Posted November 29, 2023 Report Share Posted November 29, 2023 Thanks guys, it sounds great. I've booked an AirBnB with a generous cancellation policy so all being well, I'll be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been there this year and really enjoyed it, you can read my comment at the end of Rock En Seine 2023 topic: To answer your question I can add that there's no camping. The festival takes place in a big park on the west border of the city, in walking distance from the Metro Line n.10 last stop. I suggest you to look for an hotel or b&b in the area west of the Tour Eiffel and east from the park. My girlfriend and I booked a 4* hotel for 6 nights (to enjoy Paris of course) including breakfast a 4 metro stops from the festival (10 minutes) and we payed a little less than 800€ for the two of us.

All it's well linked and quick and you will have a few hours to spend in the morning if you want, but relax around the Seine is always a good choice.

Ohad Posted December 4, 2023 Report Share Posted December 4, 2023 Currently, this is my favorite lineup this summer - LCD and Massive Attack are the best headliners I could ask for this summer. However, as my friend just moved to Budapest, Sziget became a very comfortable and cheap option for me. Therefore, 2 questions, please: 1. It is my impression that Sziget and Rock En Sien tend to share acts. Especially headliners. Do you share this impression? 2. When should I expect full Festival tickets to sell out, based on previous years? I wonder if it's realistic to wait until sziget, or even LL, announce first names Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you share this impression? This year they shared two headliners (Billie Eilish and Florence, who in the end didn't play Rock En Seine) and some undercard, four or five names maybe. Sziget nowadays is way more electronic and pop-oriented, so I can see they share Fred and Måneskin, but not Massive Attack or LCD Soundsystem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year there were concerts by Billie Eilish (extra RES day) and Imagine Dragons (2 shows) the same week which maybe affected ticket sales someway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im really, really interested in going because the line up feels like it was picked just for me but I’m holding out for other festival announcements because indecisiveness is a curse of mine. If I go it will be a full four day ticket, how late can I pull the trigger based on previous years? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
