YARDLAND FESTIVAL – the cultural prototype


YARDLAND: The Festival of Popular Cultures

YARDLAND is the festival of popular cultures — powered by the people who live, shape and celebrate them: France, Africa, the Caribbean, the Antilles, Europe…
Nearly 30,000 people come together at the Hippodrome de Vincennes, from July 4 to 6, 2025.

YARDLAND is you — our creators, our shared culture, our pride.


3 Days of Total Immersion: Music, Dance, Art & Lifestyle

After an explosive second edition, YARD and We Love Art invite you to:

  • ? 3 days of live music, with a genre-spanning lineup: rap, afrobeat, drill, dancehall, R&B, zouk and amapiano, across more than 5 stages at the heart of the Hippodrome.

  • ?? A vibrant food court with flavors from the Guadeloupe (bokit), grilled chicken, burgers, and more.

  • ?? A marketplace and creative pop-ups, with fashion drops, streetwear brands, and showcases that embody urban culture.

  • ?? Cultural and community spaces, including panels, talks, and initiatives through “Yard for Good” — a village dedicated to social justice, environment, inclusion and civic engagement.


A Bold and International Lineup

YARDLAND features a high-profile, high-energy program with global stars (Asake, Party Next Door, Latto, Shenseea…) performing in France for the first time, alongside major French-speaking artists (Gazo, Tiakola, Theodora, Hamza, Meryl).
The festival is also committed to gender equity, programming 50% women and 50% men on stage.


Why YARDLAND?

  • ? An inclusive, community-driven festival, built for audiences who don’t feel represented elsewhere.

  • ? A 360° experience: music, fashion, food, art, sports and purpose-driven culture.

  • ? A unique setting: the historic Hippodrome de Vincennes, transformed into the epicenter of urban cultures.

  • ? A socially conscious gathering: with the “Yard for Good” program, voting awareness, anti-harassment campaigns and safe zones.

  • ? A safe, welcoming vibe: inclusive signage, safety app, trained staff and real community care.
