Our survival tips for the Francofolies festival

A music festival requires preparation. Trust the regulars.

1/ Download the "Francofolies" app: It’s your bible for the weekend. Set times, site map, notifications in case of changes... Essential.

2/ Prepare your legs: The site is vast. You’ll walk kilometers. Choose your most comfortable sneakers.

3/ The meeting point: The network is often saturated. Set a fixed and easy-to-find rendezvous point with your friends (e.g., "in front of the Ferris wheel," "at the foot of the Chain Tower").

4/ Stay hydrated! We can’t say it enough. Drink water regularly.

5/ External battery: Between photos, videos, and the festival app, your phone won’t last. The external battery is your best friend.

There you go, you now have all the keys to make Francofolies 2025 an unforgettable experience. An insane lineup, pro tips, and a look signed by Project X Paris: now all that’s left is to count the days.
