The Main Square Festival 2025 continues to unveil itself with the announcement of fourteen new names in the line-up, promising an even crazier experience from 4 to 6 July in the Citadelle of Arras.

FRIDAY 4 JULY: POP, ROCK AND NEW DISCOVERIES

HERVÉ, named Best Male Newcomer at the 2021 Victoires de la Musique awards, will be thrilling audiences with his fresh electro-pop. He’ll be joined by JOLAGREEN23, the talented rapper currently shaking up French rap, and WUNDERHORSE with their energetic show combining folk and indie-rock sounds. Last but not least, DASHA will be rounding off this rich line-up, adding a touch of dynamism and modernity to the day, which will also feature DEFTONES, RÜFÜS DU SOL, BIGFLO & OLI, CLARA LUCIANI, LUIDJI and LAST TRAIN.

SATURDAY 5 JULY: HAUTS (DE FRANCE) IN COLOUR

The second day of the festival was already shaping up to be a packed one, with acts including MARTIN GARRIX, GRACIE ABRAMS, JULIEN DORÉ, PIERRE GARNIER and DAVID KUSHNER. But the party’s about to get even crazier with the arrival of FOLAMOUR, a leading figure in French house, and BEN PLG, a rap revelation not to be missed. THE BACKSEAT LOVERS and AZIYA will be bringing a dose of rock, while ALESSI ROSE will be adding a touch of pop to the day.

SUNDAY 6 JULY: ECLECTIC SHOWS FOR A DAZZLING FINALE

To close the festival, the Sunday line-up already featured DJ SNAKE, MIKA, LAMOMALI and MARK AMBOR. This time round, the day is given a new twist with FRANGLISH, an urban pop artist with sunny rhythms, and L’IMPÉRATRICE, whose sophisticated disco-pop is sure to get the crowd dancing. The inimitable MARCEL ET SON ORCHESTRE promise a festive, quirky (and homey!) time, while PETER CAT RECORDING CO and X AMBASSADORS round off this eclectic line-up with panache, perfect for all tastes.

With these 14 new names, the Main Square Festival 2025 is set to be the must-see event in the Hauts-de-France region.
