From July 9 to 11, 2026, the Zik Zac Festival returns in top form to make the Théâtre de Verdure du Jas de Bouffan vibrate to the rhythm of world music.
For almost three decades, the ZIK ZAC FESTIVAL has established itself as one of the most vibrant cultural events of the Aix summer. From July 9 to 11, 2026, the festival will take over Gilbert Vilers Park and its green theater for its 29th edition. Faithful to its founding values, this unmissable event remains completely free and open to all, celebrating diversity, cross-breeding and the joy of living.
This year again, the Zik Zac stage will take festival-goers to the four corners of the globe with daring, explosive and solar artistic proposals coming from France, Algeria, Chad, DR Congo, Madagascar, Spain, Germany, Brazil, Canada…
The festival is not limited to music: because Zik Zac is a major intergenerational celebration, the youngest (and their parents) will be entitled to dedicated shows at the end of the day. The Ka Divers association will offer a street art space in the heart of the festival with a focus on regional artists, and spectators will be able to enjoy a comic strip exhibition with Les Rencontres du 9ème Art.
