Avec le Temps Festival

In 2026, Avec le temps opens a rift.
A tunnel in the matter of reality.
A corridor of light where we climb aboard a cultural spaceship to cross the frontiers of time. This vessel is song. It guides us through dreams, alternative memories and possible futures.
For ten days, Marseille becomes a world city. A land of shifting imaginations, floating utopias and new mythologies.
For ten days, the city will be listened to differently, to the rhythms of the rising urban music of Asfar Shamsi and aupinard, the timeless melodies of Les Innocents and Sébastien Tellier, the invigorating pop of Suzane and Coeur de Pirate, the poetry of Alma Rechtman and Bertrand Belin, and the legendary flow of Oxmo Puccino. We've also created a new way of seeing and experiencing the festival, with a designed concert and a song concert.

So many stories written as lines of escape to build a program, imagine paths, bridges and encounters on themes that are dear to us. We talk about futures, not to predict them, but to sing them in a different way. We talk about youth, transmission, inclusion, diversity and collective desires, so that they permeate our narratives of the future.
And perhaps, in a breath, a vibration, a shared silence, we'll hear a whisper: "There is no such thing as chance, there are only appointments.
(Paul Eluard).
