Blues sur Seine 2026: sixteen days of travelling blues along the Seine valley

From Friday 6 to Saturday 21 November 2026, the 27th Blues sur Seine moves from town to town across the Yvelines department, west of Paris, between Mantes and Saint-Germain-en-Laye. The non-profit behind it has been based in the Mantes area since 1999 and keeps a local memory alive: back in the 1970s, BB King, John Lee Hooker and Memphis Slim all played around here. Blues is the starting point, stretching to rock, funk and soul, with dedicated room for young audiences and for social outreach.

Charlie Winston opens proceedings on 6 November at the Théâtre Simone Signoret in Conflans, on his first tour alone in seventeen years of performing; that night is already sold out. The next evening, Fatoumata Diawara shares the Espace Jacques Brel in Mantes-la-Ville with Neal Black and Joyce Tape, while rising vocal jazz singer Tyreek McDole plays Poissy. Then come the Tuareg brothers of Niger's Etran de l'Aïr at La Clef on 10 November, the Fred Wesley Generations Trio in Limay, Jessie Lee & The Alchemists with guest Yarol Poupaud in Achères, Étienne Mbappé at the Mantes-la-Jolie music school, and Sinclair in Andrésy on 20 November.

Music also leaves the concert halls: the church in Fontenay-Saint-Père, the Emmaüs community in Follainville-Dennemont and the collegiate church in Mantes all host gigs, and Le Boucanier puts on free nights. Families can catch FEET, a show tracing a century of jazz dance, for €6. The band contest wraps up on 15 November at the Espace Brassens, where four finalists compete for the Prix Révélation, won last year by Étage 70.

Good to know: the listed time is when the first act starts, with doors half an hour earlier. The two big nights in Mantes-la-Ville and Andrésy cost €30 (€25 concessions) and spill over into an open-air village. Concessions, granted on proof, do not apply in Aubergenville, Conflans or Achères, and anyone with reduced mobility should get in touch beforehand so their access can be arranged. Tickets are sold online, or on Wednesdays at the Pavillon des Festivals box office in Mantes-la-Jolie.

Blues sur Seine 2026 runs from 6 to 21 November in towns along the Seine valley, in Île-de-France.
