“Last year had been exceptional with some 63,000 people identified over the three days“explained Denis Gerardy, director of the festival.”So we feared doing less, but ultimately we are almost in the same crowd. It was a bit unexpected, so it’s a big puff in relief.“
Friday, around 19,000 people responded. The headliner was Zaho de Sagazan, but the organization had especially bet on a more rock program than ever, with Sharko, Sam Sauvage, Ghinzu, Hollywood Porn Stars or Deus. Saturday was complete more than two weeks before the festival.
Nearly 25,000 festival -goers came to the Namur outskirts to vibrate to the rhythm of Youssoupha, Kyo, but also Helena, from the Star Academy. Sunday, the site attendance was a little less dense, with around 17,000 people. The headliners were adeed, Santa and StyleTo, Hoshi and willow to perform in the evening.
It is the third time in its history that the event has passed the symbolic CAP of 60,000 festival -goers. The first was in 2019, with a very large craze for Angèle. The event then took place at the Citadel of Namur, where work is now underway.
