Orelsan Bercy 2026: 15 concerts at the Accor Arena, a crazy gamble

Fifteen nights in Bercy: the longest siege of his career

The announcement drops on September 29, 2025, filmed at the foot of Mount Fuji. Ten dates at the Accor Arena, from December 9 to 20, 2026. For Orelsan, it’s already a personal record.

Then the ticket sales go up in flames. According to Allzic Radio, the first ten Paris concerts are sold out, meaning around 200,000 tickets sold. In early March 2026, the Caen native adds five more nights: December 22, 23, 26, 27 and 28.

The result: fifteen concerts in the same venue, spread over twenty days. Orel knows the place, though; he already played a residency there in 2022. But fifteen nights is a different kind of armor — heavier, harder to wear for longer.

What will he play under the armor?

The summer 2026 festivals offered a first clue. At Vieilles Charrues, Dour and the Arènes de Nîmes, the setlists that have been reported open with Yoroï, the track shared with Daft Punk’s Thomas Bangalter.

After that, the machine is well-oiled. Basique, La quête, Le Pacte, then tracks from the latest album: Plus rien, Ailleurs, Encore une fois, Oulalalala. A medley rewinds to the early days, from Jimmy Punchline to Le Chant des sirènes, stopping by La pluie.

From a box-office setback to number one on the charts

Autumn 2025 could have cracked everything. Released on October 29, Yoroï, the film co-written by Orel, who also plays the lead role, opened with 126,000 admissions, according to Boxofficepro. With a reported budget of 14 million euros, the press called it a flop.

Nine days later, the comeback arrives on record. La fuite en avant is released on November 7, 2025: 17 tracks, with fatherhood as a recurring theme. The album climbs to No. 1 in France and earns platinum certification.

The setback didn’t break the armor: it tempered it. Launched on January 16, 2026, at the Zénith in Caen, his hometown, the tour then crossed France before reaching the summer festivals. Bercy isn’t a last stand. It’s the culmination.

Tickets, access, timing: your guide before entering the arena

At launch, prices ranged from €48 for the standing floor to €80 for the Gold category, according to Sortiraparis. Sales have moved fast since then: check availability for each date before getting carried away.

Only use official channels: orelsan.show, Ticketmaster and the Accor Arena box office. Outside these channels, there’s no guarantee your ticket will get you through the checks.

For access, metro lines 6 and 14, Bercy station. Fifteen nights in a row also means fifteen nights of queues on the boulevard: allow plenty of time. At Project X Paris, we’re already getting swept up in the rhythm of this December in armor.
