The Garorock festival, which will take place in Marmande from June 26 to 28, 2026, has finally lifted the veil on the first headliners for its 30ᵉ edition. Organizers are promising an “electric” return to roots, with a line-up that’s already got the urban and electro scenes buzzing. Just 1h30 from Bordeaux, this is a musical rendez-vous not to be missed.
The first names announced
After a long wait, the first ten artists were announced on Tuesday, December 2, 2025 – coinciding with the opening of early-bird pass sales. While rumours have been rife over the past few days (with Orelsan and Aya Nakamura among the most talked-about), the initial line-up already looks very promising.
As headliner, the festival invites the ever-popular Gims, accompanied by the duo Bigflo & Oli – already present in 2019 – for what promises to be an intense evening of French-language rap. Joining them will be rapper PLK and female revelation Theodora, who will bring her energetic flow to the program.
For an international touch, British singer Tom Odell – world-famous for his hit Another Love – will provide an emotional pop-rock ambience. French rock will be represented by Last Train, ready to electrify the stage.
On the electro side, the vibe will certainly be there: iconic DJs Timmy Trumpet (also present last year) and Thylacine will take to the stage to rock the Plaine de la Filhole. DJ sets by Mosimann and Nico Moreno round off this jam-packed electro line-up.
New: a Warm-Up evening
For the first time in the festival’s history, a warm-up party will be held on the eve of the official opening. On Thursday June 25, an ” electro-techno XXL warm-up ” session will take over the Village on the CTRL+B stage – for a guaranteed atmosphere from 6pm to 3am. A great opportunity to start the festivities the day before, and soak up the Garorock spirit before the official kick-off.
Next announcements on December 9
Save the date of Tuesday, December 9 at 7.30pm for the second wave of artist names, including those scheduled for the Thursday warm-up party. We promise even more surprises before the summer.
