About
The 7th edition of the Ici Demain festival arrives at FGO-Barbara in the 18th arrondissement from 18 to 20 November 2026. This event highlights the contemporary emerging music scene by showcasing a diverse lineup of twenty-four artists, including 100KIKI, Fawzi, and Yasmine. Designed as a professional showcase, the festival provides new talents with an ideal environment for their first live stage experiences. Please note that this event is strictly for attendees aged 18 and over. It is an opportunity to discover the future of current music within a venue dedicated to artist development.
Ici Demain Festival highlights a new wave of artists with varied backgrounds and aesthetics that define the richness of young contemporary creation. This is done in continuity with and as a complement to FGO-Barbara's mission of supporting creation and emerging talent, led by the Artistic Creation Department.
Ici Demain was imagined in 2020, in the heart of the Goutte d’Or, a unique neighborhood within an eclectic and bustling 18th arrondissement already known as the beating heart of contemporary music in Paris.
Highlighting this line-up of emerging artists also means giving them the means to take their first steps on stage in the best possible conditions, managed with special attention by the entire FGO-Barbara team.
As the richness of young contemporary creation also expresses itself through visual art, the aesthetic of the 7th edition of the festival was entrusted to the illustrator Gabriel Picard.
