Electronic music pioneer and visionary performer Jean-Michel Jarre returns to the stage in summer 2025 with a long-awaited series of live shows across Europe. The run marks his first official tour since 2016, and his first live performance since he headlined the Paris 2024 Olympic Games closing ceremony in September.
Blending cutting-edge technology, immersive visuals, and iconic soundscapes, the maestro’s summer dates include headline concerts and festival appearances, offering fans a rare opportunity to experience his music live in stunning settings - from ancient amphitheatres such as the Arena Pula in Croatia and Anfiteatro Degli Scavi in Pompeii to the iconic Piazza San Marco in Venice, along with royal palaces such as the Royal Palace of Brussels, state-of-the-art arenas and open-air festivals.
Spanning more than five decades of groundbreaking music, the show will feature highlights from Jarre’s catalogue alongside newer compositions and reimagined classics.
"I’m delighted to return to the stage and share this new live experience with fans across Europe," says Jarre. "Each venue on this tour offers a unique atmosphere and energy - they are all perfect settings to bring my music to life."
In addition to his summer live shows, Jean-Michel attended the opening of Amazônia in Brussels, a major exhibition by renowned French-Brazilian photographer Sebastião Salgado, for which he composed the evocative original soundtrack.
Also, as part of the official Venice Architecture Biennale, held from May 10 to November 23, 2025, Jarre presents ‘Oxyville’, an electronic musical creation designed with 360° spatial sound, exploring the connection between 3D sound and architectural space, where sound becomes the raw material for mentally constructing an imaginary city. At the end of the experience, visitors are invited to scan a QR code to share their vision in the form of a comment. Each comment will become a prompt that an AI will visually transform, generating an image of the city imagined by each person.
