Strong in music 2025: Bron wants to make the heart of French song beat

Organized in partnership with M Radio, a station that broadcasts exclusively French songs, “Fort en musiques” returns with a multigenerational lineup. Headlining the show are Amir, Jérémy Frérot, Julie Zenatti, Jean-Baptiste Guégan - Johnny Hallyday's vocal double - and Superbus. The latter's singer announced at a press conference a "return to her roots" with the release of her next album OK KO scheduled for July 4, including several new tracks that will be performed in Bron.

With approximately 2,000 seats available per evening, including 1,500 near the stage, the festival is playing the proximity card. “This is not a free festival, but a festival that we offer,” declared the mayor of Bron, citing a desire to make culture accessible while controlling the capacity. To avoid "no-shows," reminder campaigns via SMS and email will be sent to ticket holders.

The Brondillants are at the heart of the program, with a form of priority access: they represented two-thirds of the audience in previous years. The objective is twofold: to build loyalty among local audiences and to offer everyone a privileged musical experience in a natural setting. The program is designed to bring together all generations in a family-friendly and festive atmosphere.

Fort de Bron isn't just a backdrop; it's a key player in the festival, which the city hopes to showcase as a living heritage site. For the occasion, the site will be showcased with a redesigned scenography, entertainment areas, food trucks, and a friendly atmosphere designed for a summer outing outside the city.

Alongside the headliners, Fort en musiques continues to support the Lyon scene, with two young local artists opening: Charlie OZ (June 26) and Nade (June 27). These are valuable opportunities to showcase new talent to a wide audience.

Music in Bron , from June 26 to 28.
