Tunis-sur-Seine Returns for 5th Edition with Bold Arab Alt Lineup
The Paris-based festival celebrates 5 years of alternative Arab sounds with artists from Tunisia, Syria, Algeria, Morocco, and beyond.
Now in its fifth year, Tunis-sur-Seine returns to Paris July 5th with one of its most dynamic editions yet. Dedicated to championing alternative Arab and Mediterranean music, the festival has built a reputation for pushing boundaries and amplifying emerging voices from across the region and its diaspora.
This year’s lineup features a genre-defying mix: Tunisian pop, Maghreb hip-hop, Syrian rap, indie soul, and electronic experiments that capture the pulse of a generation in motion. Artists include Si Lemhaf, ODA, Tamman, Dhalma, DJAM & TiMoh, Nejia, Ziineb, Maris Ben, Dawan, and Soolek, each bringing a unique take on the region’s soundscape.
Taking place at Le Point Fort d’Aubervilliers, the event transforms the venue into a full-day celebration of music and culture. Alongside ten back-to-back concerts, attendees can explore a creative market, sample regional street food, and take part in workshops and activities for all ages.
Tunis-sur-Seine has always been a meeting point for diasporic memory, hybrid identities, and artistic resistance. Five years in, it remains a vital platform for Arab artists who defy categorization and rewrite the rules of genre, language, and belonging.
